This crossing links Fourni with Lipsi in the northern Dodecanese, taking from under two hours on the Dodekanisos Seaways catamaran Dodekanisos Pride to a bit over two on Blue Star Ferries' Blue Star Patmos. Both boats call at Patmos on the way in most cases.

Lipsi is a small, quiet island between Leros and Patmos, popular with Greek and Italian summer visitors and short on formal sights. The port sits directly in the main village, so ferries dock in the heart of town and everything is within a walk. People come for beach-hopping, Platys Gialos among them, and unhurried tavernas, with the church of Agios Ioannis Theologos and its Panagia tou Harou icon the main thing to see.

Services run around three times a week between the two operators. The last published timetable is shown below. Local boats also run short hops from Lipsi to Patmos and Leros through the summer.
