Kastellorizo to Tilos Route Map

Map of the Dodecanese showing the ferry route west from Kastellorizo to Tilos.

Megisti to Tilos takes between about four and a half and seven and a half hours, with the Dodekanisos Pride catamaran from Dodekanisos Seaways quicker than Blue Star Ferries' Blue Star Patmos. Both work west and north from Kastellorizo through the southern Dodecanese, calling at other islands on the way. The Blue Star ship is the more comfortable option for a long daytime run.

Ferries dock at Livadia, the port and principal village of Tilos, set around a wide bay with the settlement right behind the dock. Tilos is one of the least developed islands in the Dodecanese and has made a point of its eco-conscious approach, with marked walking trails, good birdwatching and quiet beaches. The older village of Megalo Chorio sits inland, and the Charkadio cave, where fossilised dwarf elephants were found, is nearby.

The pairing runs two or three times a week between the two operators, so dates matter more than times. Current sailings and fares are listed in the timetable below, with fares starting around €23.50. Tilos connects onward to Nisyros, Kos and Rhodes on the same services.

Tips for the Kastellorizo to Tilos ferry

  • The ferry approach into a Greek island harbour is often the most beautiful part of the journey – get onto the bow deck 15–20 minutes before arrival.
  • If you need an invoice for business travel, request it at the time of booking – it is much harder to obtain after the journey.
  • Pack your overnight essentials – toothbrush, sleep mask, earplugs, phone charger – in a small bag you can access without opening your main luggage.
  • Keep your ticket or boarding confirmation accessible throughout the journey – crew occasionally check tickets on board.
