Egiali to Donoussa Route Map
Egiali to Donoussa is a short crossing of around 45 minutes to an hour and a quarter, served by both Blue Star Ferries on the Blue Star Naxos and Small Cyclades Lines on the Express Scopelitis. The two islands are close neighbours in the eastern Cyclades, so this is a genuine local hop rather than a long haul, and the smaller Scopelitis gives the more characterful ride of the two.
Donoussa is a small, remote island northeast of Naxos with very little tourism infrastructure. The port and main settlement, Stavros, is a whitewashed harbour village, and everything on the island is within walking or short-drive distance from it. People come for quiet beaches, walking routes and an escape from the busier Cyclades.
The route runs roughly daily in the summer season and becomes limited outside it. Current departures and fares are shown in the timetable below. Donoussa sits on the Small Cyclades line, so onward connections run to Koufonissi, Schinoussa, Iraklia and Naxos.

Tips for the Egiali to Donoussa ferry
- On a rough crossing, the best strategy is to fix your gaze on the horizon, breathe slowly, and avoid reading or looking at screens.
- On rough crossings, secure your belongings before leaving your seat – bags and bottles slide off tables easily, and wet floors make a spill a hazard.
- Disembarkation is fast on small short-hop ferries; station yourself near the exit before the vessel reaches the harbour to avoid being last off.
- If your sailing is cancelled, do not simply wait at the port indefinitely – go to the operator's office, confirm the next available sailing, and plan your overnight if needed.
- In Donoussa, one of the Small Cyclades between Naxos and Amorgos, the pace of life is unhurried and the beaches are genuinely secluded. The island is ideal for swimming and hiking between coves in an authentic, crowd-free setting.
