Ferry from Kimolos (Psathi) to Apollonia (Milos)

This is the local shuttle between Kimolos and Pollonia, also written Apollonia, on the northeast tip of Milos. Kimolos Link runs it with the small landing-craft style ferry Osia Methodia, and the crossing takes about twenty-five minutes. It carries cars, vans and motorbikes as well as foot passengers, and is the standard way islanders and hire cars move between the two islands.

Pollonia is a small fishing village at the northeastern corner of Milos, with a sandy beach, a line of tavernas along the front and a handful of rooms and small hotels. It is a considerably quieter base than Adamas, the main Milos port, and popular with people who want somewhere low-key to stay. Buses and hire cars connect it with Adamas and the rest of the island.

The shuttle runs several times a day, year-round, which makes hopping between Kimolos and Milos genuinely easy. The current timetable and fares are shown in the table below. Note that this is the Pollonia crossing rather than a sailing to the main Milos port at Adamas, so allow time for the road transfer if you are connecting to a larger ferry.

Hiring a car

Do you need a car on Kimolos?

Not really. Kimolos is tiny, only about 900 people live there, and the port at Psathi is just 1km from the main village, Chorio. Most visitors walk or hire a scooter or quad locally for the short hops to beaches like Aliki (3km) or Prassa (6.5km). A car is only worth arranging if you want to bring one over from Milos on the vehicle ferry; compare options at Discover Cars.

Tips for the Kimolos to Apollonia ferry

• Drinking water at port kiosks is typically expensive; bring your own water bottle to fill before you leave your accommodation.

• The 15th of August sees mass movement across the Greek ferry network as families travel to their ancestral islands; this is the single busiest day of the year.
• Children under a certain age travel free on most Greek ferry lines; the exact age threshold varies by operator, so check the terms when booking.
