Kastellorizo to Lipsi Route Map
Megisti to Lipsi takes around thirteen and a half hours on Blue Star Ferries' Blue Star Patmos, working the length of the Dodecanese from the far south-east to the islands north of Leros. Most of that time is spent calling at ports in between rather than in open water, so it breaks up into stages. It is a conventional ferry with cabins and lounges, which suits a journey of this length.
Lipsi is a small island between Leros and Patmos, quiet and village-like, and popular with Greek and Italian visitors through the summer. The port sits in the middle of the main village, so ferries dock right in the heart of things and everything is walkable. People come for swimming and beach-hopping, Platys Gialos among them, and for unhurried tavernas rather than for sights, though the church of Agios Ioannis Theologos and its Panagia tou Harou icon are the local landmark.
This pairing sails about once a week, so it is worth confirming dates well ahead. Current departures and fares are in the timetable below, with fares starting around €32. Small local boats link Lipsi with Leros and Patmos far more often, which is the usual way to reach it.

Tips for the Kastellorizo to Lipsi ferry
- Very calm sea conditions – glassy water and no swell – are common in early June and late September. These are the most comfortable times to cross the open Aegean.
- Pack a reusable water bottle in an accessible pocket – hydration is important in summer and onboard water is expensive.
- Booking the earliest possible outward sailing gives you the most time on the island and reduces pressure on your return connection.
- Two-berth cabins with a porthole cost more but are worth the premium for overnight crossings – a few hours of genuine sleep transforms how you arrive.
- Check the marine weather forecast for your crossing the evening before departure; the Hellenic National Meteorological Service (EMY) publishes forecasts for all sea areas.
