Timetable not published yet

The last known sailing on this route was on 14 September 2026. No timetable beyond that date has been published yet. Greek operators often release the next season’s schedules only a few months ahead, so this can be a seasonal pause rather than the end of the route. Over the last 12 months it ran from June to September, busiest in August (2 or 3 times a week).

These are the sailings we recorded on this route from October 2025 to September 2026. They show what ran then, not a forecast: timetables change from year to year.

Leros to Vathy, the capital of Samos, takes somewhere between about four and a quarter and six and a half hours depending on the ship and its calls along the way. Blue Star Ferries and Superfast Ferries cover the route with conventional ferries including Diagoras and Lefka Ori. The longer timings reflect intermediate stops rather than a slower vessel.

Vathy, officially Samos Town, sits at the head of a deep sheltered bay that gives it its name. It is a working town rather than a resort, with administrative offices, shopping streets and a lively harbourfront, plus a well-regarded archaeological museum. It is the island's main ferry gateway and sits close to Kusadasi on the Turkish coast.

The route runs a couple of times a week rather than daily, so plan around the sailing days. Current departures and fares are shown in the timetable below. From Vathy you can pick up onward boats north through the Aegean or across to Turkey.
