Egiali to Schinoussa Route Map
The Express Scopelitis links Egiali on Amorgos with Schinoussa in a little over three hours, calling at other Small Cyclades islands as it goes. It is a Small Cyclades Lines route and a genuinely local one, used as much by islanders and supplies as by visitors. The boat is small, so the crossing is more enjoyable when the sea is settled.
Schinoussa is one of the quietest islands in the group, with almost no development and a slow pace that is the whole reason people go. The harbour is at Mersini, with the main settlement, Chora, a short way up the hill above it. Beaches are peaceful and easy to reach on foot, and the island is small enough to walk end to end.
Sailings are around three times a week rather than daily, so it is a route to plan around rather than turn up for. The current timetable and fares are shown below, with fares starting around €8. Most onward connections beyond the Small Cyclades go via Naxos.

Tips for the Egiali to Schinoussa ferry
- Passports or national identity cards are required for all passengers on domestic Greek ferry routes – carry yours in your day bag, not buried in your hold luggage.
- Island-hopping itineraries that move in one direction (e.g. Athens to Rhodes via the Dodecanese) rather than back-and-forth are generally cheaper and less stressful.
- Smoking is not permitted inside ferry terminals or on board vessels in enclosed areas; designated smoking areas are usually at the stern on open deck.
- Once you arrive in Schinoussa, one of the Small Cyclades, you'll find secluded beaches, charming villages, and an authentically unhurried pace of life well removed from the tourist trail. The island is a fine base for swimming in crystal-clear waters and exploring the local landscape on foot.
