The last known sailing on this route was on 11 September 2026.
No timetable beyond that date has been published yet. Greek operators often release the next season’s schedules only a few months ahead, so this can be a seasonal pause rather than the end of the route. Check whether it is currently available to book through Ferryscanner.
Historically, this route ran about 0.3 sailings a day in September 2026.
Nisyros to Agios Kirykos on Ikaria is a long northbound leg of around seven and a half hours on Blue Star Ferries' Blue Star Patmos. The ship works its way up through the Dodecanese before crossing into the North Aegean, which accounts for the timing. It is a conventional vehicle ferry with indoor seating and open decks for the duration.
Agios Kirykos is Ikaria's capital and main port, an unpretentious harbour town rather than a resort. Thermal spa facilities near the waterfront draw on the island's long-standing hot springs tradition. Ikaria itself is known for a famously relaxed pace of life and its reputation as a Blue Zone where residents live unusually long.
Sailings are rare on this pairing, roughly once a week, so it needs planning well ahead. Current days, times and fares are shown in the timetable below. Ikaria also has a second port at Evdilos on the north coast, used by other routes, so check which one your ticket names.
