Gavdos to Sougia is a long crossing north from Europe's southernmost inhabited island back to the Cretan coast, taking around three and three quarter hours. ANENDYK runs it with the Samaria, a conventional coastal ferry that works the whole south Crete network. Open water for most of the way, so it is worth checking conditions before you commit.
Sougia is a small village on Crete's southwest coast in Chania prefecture, laid-back and minimally developed compared with the north coast. Travellers use it as a base for gorge walking, with the Agia Roumeli and Samaria area along the coast, and for its quiet pebble beach. It is a small-scale place with no large harbour infrastructure, so arrivals are straightforward but facilities are limited.
The route runs only a couple of times a week and is highly seasonal, so it demands planning rather than turning up. Current sailings and fares are shown below. From Sougia a road climbs inland towards Chania, and the coastal boats continue to Agia Roumeli, Paleochora and Chora Sfakion.

Tips for the Gavdos to Sougia ferry
- At smaller island ports, taxis are scarce; book one in advance or confirm with your hotel that a transfer is arranged.
- If your itinerary is time-critical (flight the next day), always choose the conventional slow ferry over the fast catamaran in summer – reliability matters more than speed.
- Rain gear is rarely needed on summer ferry crossings, but a waterproof layer is worth having in spring and autumn when showers are possible.
- Snacks in your bag reduce dependency on the onboard cafeteria and save money – nuts, crackers, fruit, and chocolate travel well.
