These are the sailings we recorded on this route from November 2025 to October 2026. They show what ran then, not a forecast: timetables change from year to year.
Mytilini to Oinousses is a leg of the Hellenic Seaways North Aegean line, run by the Nissos Samos, taking around four and three quarter hours. The ship heads south from Lesvos towards Chios, calling at Oinousses on the way through. It is a conventional car ferry rather than a fast boat, with indoor seating and deck space for the crossing.
Oinousses is a small island just off the northeast coast of Chios, with a single village and harbour of the same name. It has long been home to prominent Greek shipowning families, which is reflected in the substantial houses and the small maritime museum near the waterfront. There is little in the way of tourism infrastructure, and the appeal is a quiet, ordinary island life that has not been packaged up.
Direct sailings on this pairing run a couple of times a week, so the timings need checking carefully against the table below, which also shows current fares. The alternative is to sail to Chios, which is far better served, and pick up the frequent short local crossing from there.
