Nisyros to Fourni Route Map
Nisyros to Fourni is a long northbound run of nearly seven hours on Blue Star Ferries' Blue Star Patmos. The ship threads up through the Dodecanese and into the eastern Aegean, calling at several islands on the way. It is a full-size conventional ferry, so there is proper seating, deck space and a canteen for the journey.
Fourni, or Fourni Korseon, is a small archipelago between Ikaria and Samos with one of the largest fishing fleets in Greece relative to its size. The main port town sits in a sheltered bay with tavernas lining the harbour front, and the seafood is as good as that suggests. Beaches are quiet and the island has escaped any real development.
This link runs about once a week, so it is worth building the itinerary around the sailing day. Current times and fares are shown in the timetable below. Fourni also has short local connections to Ikaria and Samos, which are usually the more practical way in and out.

Tips for the Nisyros to Fourni ferry
- Booking the earliest possible outward sailing gives you the most time on the island and reduces pressure on your return connection.
- Check the Poseidon sea state forecast (hcmr.gr) for detailed wave height and period forecasts across all Greek sea areas.
- Fresh air almost always helps with sea sickness – going outside on deck and looking at the horizon is more effective than staying in an enclosed saloon.
- Confirmation emails sometimes contain a QR code for faster boarding – screenshotting this and zooming in before you reach the scanner saves time at the gate.
- When travelling with a motorcycle, book and pay for the vehicle space at the same time as your passenger ticket – vehicle spaces can sell out separately.
