Fourni to Chios Route Map

Map of the north Aegean showing the ferry route north-north-west from Fourni to Chios.

Fourni to Chios is a long northbound run of around five and a half hours, operated by Blue Star Ferries with the Diagoras. The ship works up the eastern Aegean calling at Samos on the way, so the crossing breaks naturally into stages. Fares start around €19 for a deck ticket.

Chios is a large North Aegean island close to the Turkish coast, historically wealthy from mastic and shipping. The main port and town share the island's name, and the harbour is overlooked by a Genoese-era castle in the old quarter. Most visitors head inland for the UNESCO-listed mastic villages, particularly Mesta and the patterned facades of Pyrgi, and for the Nea Moni monastery.

Sailings run roughly once a week, so this is a route to build a plan around. Current departures and fares are shown in the table below. Chios has good onward links north to Lesvos and west to Piraeus.

Hiring a car

Can you rent a car in Chios?

Yes, and the ferry dock sits right in Chios Town itself, with rental offices a short walk away or at the airport 3-4km south. A car makes sense if you want to reach the Mastic villages in the south or Kambos's walled citrus groves, since buses run less frequently outside town; compare prices at Discover Cars.

Tips for the Fourni to Chios ferry

  • A foam sleeping mat or a folded jacket beneath you makes deck sleeping much more comfortable – the steel deck is hard and conducts cold.
  • At smaller island ports, the quay surface can be cobblestone, wooden planking, or rough concrete – wheeled bags take a beating and can tip on uneven ground.
  • Sleeping on the open deck in a sleeping bag is a classic Greek ferry experience – genuinely enjoyable in summer on a calm night.
