The last known sailing on this route was on 12 October 2026. No timetable beyond that date has been published yet.

Farmakonissi to Pythagorio on Samos takes a little over two hours on SAOS Ferries' conventional ship Saonisos. It is a northbound leg of a longer circuit through the small islands off the Turkish coast. The Saonisos is a slow, steady boat rather than a fast craft.

Pythagorio is a small harbour town on the south coast of Samos, more relaxed in feel than the island's main port at Vathy. Logothetis Castle overlooks the yacht and fishing harbour, and there are tavernas along the waterfront. The ancient Heraion and the UNESCO-listed Eupalinos tunnel are both a short trip away.

There is typically just one scheduled sailing in a fortnight, so this is not a route to depend on. Current departures and fares are shown below. From Samos there are considerably better connections onward, particularly from Vathy and Karlovassi towards Chios, Ikaria and Piraeus.
