Myrina to Piraeus Route Map
The direct Lemnos to Piraeus sailing is a genuine long-distance passage, run by Hellenic Seaways with the Nissos Samos. It takes close to twenty-two hours, working its way down the North Aegean with calls at other islands before turning for Attica. A cabin is well worth booking on a crossing of this length rather than trying to sit it out.
Piraeus is the main port of Athens, a few kilometres southwest of the city centre and one of the busiest passenger ports in Europe. The metro terminus sits right by the harbour and runs straight into central Athens, and the suburban rail links to the airport line. It is a sprawling port with numbered gates from E1 to E12, so check which gate your ferry uses before setting out.
The through service runs roughly once a week, so most travellers heading to Athens from Lemnos go via Kavala or Lavrio instead, or fly. The current timetable and fares for the direct sailing are shown below. From Piraeus there are onward connections to the Cyclades, Dodecanese, Crete and the Saronic islands.

Tips for the Myrina to Piraeus ferry
- A compact headlamp or torch is worth packing; island paths and port areas are not always well lit, especially in the off season.
- Cancellation policies vary by operator – most offer a full refund if cancelled more than 24 hours before departure, but read the small print before you book.
- Some booking sites charge a service fee on top of the base fare; the total shown at checkout is what matters, not just the headline price.
- Ferries from Piraeus depart from the main port of Athens, giving easy access to the Acropolis, the world-class Acropolis Museum, and the ancient Agora. The historic Plaka neighbourhood at the foot of the Acropolis hill, with its neoclassical lanes, Roman ruins, and traditional tavernas, is the most atmospheric place to spend time before or after your crossing.
