Kavala to Lavrio Route Map
Kavala to Lavrio is a long haul down the length of the Aegean, run by Seajets with the Aquablue. Journey times range from about fourteen hours to eighteen depending on how many islands the ship calls at on the way, so this is an overnight crossing at minimum. It is a conventional ferry, with cabins and seating lounges for the duration.
Lavrio sits on the southeast coast of Attica, near Sounio, and works as a secondary Athens area ferry gateway alongside Piraeus and Rafina. It is a former mining town, built on the ancient silver workings, with its own dedicated port well away from central Athens traffic. The Temple of Poseidon at Sounio is a short drive south along the coast.
Sailings run around three times a week in season and stop outside it. The current timetable and fares are shown below. From Lavrio there are buses into Athens and to the airport, which is closer to this port than to Piraeus, plus onward ferries to Kea, Kythnos and the western Cyclades.
