Kos to Pserimos is a half-hour hop on the Olympios Ermis, run by ANEM. Fares start around two euros, making it one of the cheapest crossings anywhere in Greece. It is a small-boat local service rather than a full ferry route, so luggage and vehicles are not really the point.
Pserimos is a tiny island between Kos and Kalymnos, essentially one village wrapped around a sandy bay. The crescent beach sits right by the harbour with a handful of tavernas behind it, and the water is calm and shallow enough for families. The port is the only settlement, so boats tie up in the middle of the village.
Sailings run a few times a week, concentrated in the summer months when day-trip demand is highest. The current timetable and fares are shown in the tables below. Boats also run from Kalymnos, and many visitors do Pserimos as a half-day outing since accommodation on the island is very limited.

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 Pserimos 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.
- In an emergency, follow crew instructions immediately; the muster stations are marked on deck plans posted in corridors and at cabin doors.
- A neck wallet or money belt under your clothing is the most secure way to carry your passport and cards in busy ferry terminals and ports.
