Fourni to Kavala Route Map
Fourni to Kavala is one of the longest scheduled crossings in Greek waters, running around nineteen and a half hours on Blue Star Ferries' Diagoras. The ship threads north through the eastern Aegean, calling at Samos, Chios, Lesvos and Limnos before reaching the northern mainland. A cabin is worth booking on a crossing of this duration.
Kavala is a major port city on the mainland Aegean coast of northern Greece, with an old town in the Panagia district, Ottoman-era architecture and the Kamares aqueduct. Most travellers use it as a jumping-off point for Thassos, but the castle and the archaeological site at Philippi nearby are both worth the detour. The city has its own airport and good road connections into Thrace and Macedonia.
The service runs roughly once a week, following the Diagoras's northern line. Current departures and fares are shown in the table below. Ferries to Thassos leave from Kavala itself and from nearby Keramoti, which is the shorter and more frequent crossing.
