Fourni to Lipsi Route Map
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. Fares start around €6, making it one of the cheaper island hops in this part of the Aegean. 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. Current departures and fares are shown in the table below. Local boats also run short hops from Lipsi to Patmos and Leros through the summer.

Tips for the Fourni to Lipsi ferry
- On deck class for a short crossing, there is no need to find an inside seat – standing or sitting on the open deck for 45 minutes is perfectly comfortable.
- Air conditioning inside Greek ferries can be set very cold, especially in summer – keep a light layer in your day bag even in hot weather.
- At ports with multiple berths, check which pier your ferry docks at on arrival – it is not always the same berth every trip.
- Booking a multi-leg island-hopping itinerary in one session lets you verify that your connections are realistic before committing.
