Kos to Fourni Route Map
Kos to Fourni runs north through the eastern Aegean, operated by Blue Star Ferries and Dodekanisos Seaways with the Blue Star Patmos and Dodekanisos Pride. Journey time is around three and a half hours on the catamaran and over five on the conventional ferry, which makes more calls on the way. Fares start around thirty-one euros.
Fourni, properly Fourni Korseon, is a small archipelago between Ikaria and Samos with a serious fishing tradition and one of the largest fleets in Greece for its size. The main port town, also called Fourni, sits in a sheltered bay lined with tavernas along the harbour front, and the seafood alone justifies a stop. Beyond that it is quiet beaches and an unhurried, undeveloped feel, with waters well known to archaeologists for ancient wrecks.
Sailings run a couple of times a week in season. The current timetable and fares are shown in the tables below. Fourni sits between Ikaria and Samos on the same chain of sailings, so it is straightforward to add to a northbound island-hopping route.

Hiring a car
Can you rent a car in Kos?
Yes. The ferry port sits right in Kos Town, about 2km from the centre, a 20-25 minute walk or five-minute drive, with rental desks nearby. Buses run regularly between the main towns but thin out fast once you leave them, so a car is worth it if you want to reach the Asclepion, Mount Dikeos villages or the quieter beaches.

Tips for the Kos to Fourni ferry
- The harbour sits right beside the medieval Castle of the Knights, with ticket agencies lining the waterfront. For domestic sailings on Dodekanisos Seaways and Blue Star ferries, arrive at least 30 to 45 minutes before departure to buy tickets and locate your berth.
- If you are travelling on to Kalymnos, check which port is printed on your ticket – many sailings, including the frequent local car ferries, depart from Mastichari on Kos's north-west coast, not from Kos Town harbour.
- Left-luggage lockers at Kos Town port are limited, so don't rely on finding one at short notice; pack light enough to carry your bags the short walk from the harbour into the old town yourself.
- Carry a smaller day bag separately from your main luggage: this holds your passport, wallet, phone, charger, sunscreen, and anything else you need during the crossing.
- Economy deck class is the cheapest option and perfectly comfortable on short crossings – you have access to indoor seating, outside decks, and all onboard facilities.
