Seajets (Super Jet 2, Superjet)
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.
Paros to Katapola Route Map
Paros to Katapola ranges from under two hours on the Seajets high-speed craft to four hours on the conventional Blue Star Naxos. Seajets uses vessels such as the Champions League Jet 1, Super Jet 2 and Superjet, which are quick but enclosed. The Blue Star is slower and calls at more islands, but has proper decks and is the better bet in rough weather.
Katapola is the busier of Amorgos's two ports, a sheltered natural harbour on the west coast with a working village around it. The island capital, Chora, is a short bus ride up the hill, and further along the coast is the Hozoviotissa Monastery built into the cliff face. Ticket agents, tavernas and rooms are all on or just behind the waterfront.
Between the operators there are several sailings a day in season, which makes this one of Amorgos's more reliable connections. Current times, vessels and fares are listed in the timetable below. Aegiali in the north is the alternative arrival point on the same island, served on some of the same routes.

Hiring a car
Can you rent a car in Paros?
Yes, and rental desks cluster right by the port in Parikia, most just a couple of minutes' walk from where the ferry docks. A car earns its keep here: nowhere on Paros is more than about 30 minutes' drive away, opening up marble-quarry villages and quieter southern beaches that the KTEL bus network doesn't reach directly. Compare local suppliers at Discover Cars if you'd rather not rely on the bus timetable.

Tips for the Paros to Katapola ferry
- The whitewashed windmill facing the harbour is Parikia's landmark, useful for finding your way back to the terminal. Arrive at least an hour before departure in peak season, allowing extra time if you still need to buy your ticket at the port.
- The KTEL bus station for onward island travel is immediately to the right as you exit the port, making it easy to find without asking directions. Buses to Naoussa, the airport, and beaches all depart from here.
- Baggage storage is free at the KTEL bus station once you have bought your ticket, so there is no need to carry bags around Parikia while you wait for your ferry to board.
- Paros is one of the busiest Cyclades hubs, so if you are changing ferries the same day build in a buffer – delays tend to build up through the day and afternoon sailings are more likely to run late.
- A 40-litre backpack is the ideal size for island-hopping: large enough for two weeks' clothing, small enough to carry without difficulty.
