Egiali to Koufonissi Route Map

Map of the Cyclades showing the ferry route west from Egiali to Koufonissi.

Egiali on northern Amorgos to Koufonissi is a Small Cyclades Lines hop aboard the Express Scopelitis, taking about two and a half hours. The little ferry works its way between the islands of the group, so the journey feels more like a local bus service at sea than a scheduled crossing. Deck space is limited and it can roll in a stiff meltemi, so pick your day if you have the option.

Koufonissi's port sits right at the main village, so there is no transfer to speak of once you step off. The island is small and low-key, though it has become popular for its clear, shallow water and beaches such as Pori and Fanos. Ano Koufonissi is the inhabited island served by ferries; the neighbouring Kato Koufonissi is empty apart from day boats.

The service runs around three times a week rather than every day, so allow a little slack in your plans. The current timetable and fares are shown below, and this is a cheap crossing with tickets starting around €4. Naxos is close by and acts as the main connecting point for the wider Cyclades.

Tips for the Egiali to Koufonissi ferry

  • Waterproof dry bags or zip-lock bags are useful for protecting electronics and documents from sea spray when spending time on the outdoor deck.
  • 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.
  • Most ferries have a small play area or supervised children's zone on larger vessels; ask crew on boarding if you are travelling with very young children.
  • Stray cats are a common sight at Greek ports and on ferries – they are generally harmless but avoid feeding them as it encourages large numbers to gather.
