Oinousses to Mytilini is a four to four and three quarter hour run on the Hellenic Seaways Nissos Samos, heading north up the eastern Aegean. It is part of a longer routing rather than a dedicated link, so the sailing pattern follows the ship's wider schedule. The crossing is straightforward open water with the Turkish coast off to starboard for much of it.
Mytilini is the capital and main port of Lesvos, the third-largest Greek island, and it is a real working city rather than a resort. A Genoese and Byzantine castle overlooks the harbour and neoclassical mansions line the waterfront. The island is known for its olive oil, its ouzo distilleries, the petrified forest in the west, and villages such as Molyvos.
Sailings run about twice a week, so the current timetable and fares shown below are worth checking well in advance. Mytilini has an airport and regular ferries to Piraeus, Chios and Turkey, making it an easy place to continue from. Most travellers reach Oinousses via Chios, which has a far more frequent local service.

Tips for the Oinousses to Mytilini ferry
- In an emergency, follow crew instructions immediately; the muster stations are marked on deck plans posted in corridors and at cabin doors.
- When booking for the return leg of a day trip, remember that the last ferry of the day can fill up – book your return at the same time as your outward journey.
- Winds above Force 8 will cancel almost all Greek ferry services; in summer these conditions are very unusual but not impossible, especially with deep Mediterranean lows.
