Lipsi to Agathonisi Route Map
Lipsi to Agathonisi runs north through the small islands above Leros, taking a little over an hour on the Dodekanisos Express and up to two and a half hours on the slower boats that call at Arki and Patmos en route. Dodekanisos Seaways and SAOS Ferries both cover it as part of the local circuit, and the timing difference is all about routing rather than the sea state.
Agathonisi is one of the least-visited inhabited islands in Greece, a tiny place near the Turkish coast north of Patmos. The port and main settlement, Agios Georgios, is a small fishing harbour with a handful of tavernas and rooms, and that is broadly the extent of it. People come for the quiet, the simple village life and the unspoilt coves rather than for anything to see, and rooms should be arranged before you arrive.
Sailings run around once a day across a fortnight, though the service is weather-dependent and thinner outside the summer. Current departures and fares are in the table below, from around €5.50. Patmos and Leros are the usual staging points, and most itineraries pair Agathonisi with Arki in the same trip.

Tips for the Lipsi to Agathonisi ferry
- The meltemi blows from the north-north-west; routes that run east–west are more exposed than those running north–south along a chain of islands.
- The north Aegean islands (Lesvos, Chios, Samos) can experience strong winter gales that differ from Cyclades patterns – local knowledge is valuable here.
- May is an excellent month to travel the Greek islands by ferry – the sea is calm, the islands are green, and you will rarely struggle to find a seat.
- Heating on winter ferries can be aggressive; dress in layers so you can adjust whether you are sitting inside or out on the deck.
- On quieter routes outside peak season, booking a day or two ahead is usually sufficient and gives you the flexibility to adjust plans.
