Ferry from Kalymnos (Pothia) to Pserimos

This is a short local hop from Kalymnos across to Pserimos, taking twenty to thirty minutes on small boats run by ANEM and local operators including the Hlias T. and the Olympios Ermis. Fares start around €3, which makes it one of the cheapest crossings in the Dodecanese. It is a day-trip run rather than a scheduled trunk route.

Pserimos is tiny and almost entirely undeveloped, essentially one village wrapped around a sandy bay. The crescent beach sits right by the harbour, lined with a handful of tavernas, and the water is calm and shallow enough to suit families. The port is the only settlement, so boats tie up in the middle of the village.

Boats run roughly once a day through the season, more often in high summer when day-trip demand picks up. The current timetable and fares are listed below. Pserimos also has crossings from Kos, and many visitors do it as a half-day outing rather than staying over, since accommodation is very limited.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tips for the Kalymnos to Pserimos ferry

• The pet area on most ferries is outside, on the lower vehicle deck, which can be hot in summer – check the weather before booking a pet on a summer sailing.
• Avoid heavy meals immediately before boarding if you are prone to seasickness; a light snack is fine but a full taverna lunch is not ideal.
• Ferry companies often have a small ticket office or kiosk at the port – useful for last-minute changes, upgrades, or questions about your booking.
