Lavrio to Kavala Route Map
Lavrio, the quieter of the Athens-area ferry ports, is linked to Kavala in northern Greece by Seajets and the Aquablue. This is a long passage, anywhere from around fourteen hours to over eighteen depending on which islands the ship calls at on the way. It is a working north Aegean line rather than a direct run, so plan for a night on board and book a cabin or at least a reserved seat.
Kavala is a full-scale port city in Eastern Macedonia, stacked up a hillside above its harbour. Behind the waterfront the Panagia old town keeps its Ottoman-era houses under a castle, and the Kamares aqueduct strides across the middle of the modern town. Arrivals are usually either staying to see the city and the ruins of Philippi inland, or carrying straight on to Thassos.
The service runs a few times a week rather than daily, and is at its fullest through the summer. Current departures, crossing times and fares are shown in the table below. Kavala has its own airport and the short crossing to Thassos, so it works well as a start or end point for a trip through the north Aegean.

Hiring a car
Can you rent a car at Lavrio port?
Rental desks at Lavrio itself are scarce; the port is a working harbour about 60km southeast of Athens and roughly 40km from Athens airport, a 30-40 minute drive. Most people picking up a car for a Cycladic ferry from here collect it at the airport or in Athens beforehand, or arrange supplier delivery to the port; compare options at Discover Cars.

Tips for the Lavrio to Kavala ferry
- If you plan to sleep on deck, bring a sleeping mat or extra layer beneath you – the metal deck gets cold overnight even in summer.
- Smoking is not permitted inside ferry terminals or on board vessels in enclosed areas; designated smoking areas are usually at the stern on open deck.
- Bring a portable power bank rated at least 10,000 mAh; charging sockets on ferries are not always reliable, and island power cuts are not unheard of.
- The Greek domestic ferry network runs year-round on most major routes – even in winter you can reach Santorini, Mykonos, Rhodes, and Crete by sea.
