Ferry from Kavala to Myrina (Lemnos)

Kavala to Myrina is the main mainland link to Lemnos, and one of the more useful crossings in the North Aegean. Blue Star Ferries, Hellenic Seaways and Seajets all work the route between them, with the Diagoras, Nissos Samos and Aquablue, and the passage takes around four hours. It is a straightforward conventional ferry run across open water, comfortable enough to sit out on deck in decent weather.

Myrina is the capital and main port of Lemnos, an attractive working town rather than a resort, with a mix of Ottoman and neoclassical buildings and two sandy town beaches. A large medieval castle sits on the rocky headland dividing those two beaches and dominates the view from the harbour. The island is known for its wine and ouzo, its quiet beaches and its volcanic, agricultural landscape, and Moudros Bay to the east has significant Gallipoli-era military history.

Sailings run roughly once a day across the season, which makes Lemnos one of the easier North Aegean islands to reach from northern Greece. The current timetable and fares are shown below. Kavala also has an airport nearby and good bus links to Thessaloniki, so the ferry fits neatly into a wider mainland itinerary.
