Ferry from Mandoudi to Alonissos

Mandoudi, on the north-east coast of Evia, is the mainland-side starting point for this hop across to Alonissos, the furthest out of the three main Sporades. Seajets runs it with the high-speed Speedrunner Jet and Speedrunner Jet 2, and the crossing takes somewhere between an hour and three quarters and two hours depending on the intermediate calls. It is an open-sea run rather than a coastal one, so it can feel brisk when the summer meltemi is up.

You arrive at Patitiri, the small harbour town that serves as Alonissos's port, with the old hilltop village of Palia Alonissos looking down from above. Alonissos is the green, low-key one of the group, better known for walking, diving and the marine park that protects the monk seal population than for nightlife. Patitiri is also where the boats leave for the uninhabited islets nearby, Kyra Panagia, Peristera and Skantzoura among them.

The route generally runs about once a day through the season, so it works as a single planned leg rather than something to improvise around. Current departures, journey times and fares are listed in the timetable below. If the day you want is not covered, the more frequent Mandoudi sailings to Skiathos and Glossa give you a way in, with onward island connections from there.
