Patmos to Agios Kirykos Route Map

Map of the Dodecanese showing the ferry route north-west from Patmos to Agios Kirykos.

Patmos to Agios Kirykos on Ikaria takes just under an hour on the Dodekanisos Seaways catamaran Dodekanisos Pride, or around two hours on the Blue Star conventional ferries. It is one of the shortest links between the Dodecanese and the eastern Aegean islands. The channel here is exposed and the fast boat is the first to be affected when the meltemi blows.

Agios Kirykos is the capital and main port of Ikaria, an unpretentious harbour town rather than a resort. The thermal spa facilities near the harbour are tied to the island's long tradition of therapeutic hot springs. Ikaria is best known for its relaxed pace of life and its reputation as a Blue Zone for longevity, and the island has a second port at Evdilos on the north coast used by some routes.

There are sailings several times a fortnight, concentrated in the summer months. Current departures and fares are shown in the table below, starting around €17. From Ikaria there are onward connections to Samos, Fourni and Piraeus, plus a small airport.

Tips for the Patmos to Agios Kirykos ferry

  • The ship's tannoy system uses a chime before announcements; listen for the three-tone signal that precedes important information about arrivals or delays.
  • Boarding order on most ferries is: vehicles first, then foot passengers – foot passengers are usually called to board 15–20 minutes before departure.
  • If you are island-hopping across multiple islands, pack light – you will be lifting your bag on and off ferries, into overhead racks, and up and down steps repeatedly.
  • Passports or national identity cards are required for all passengers on domestic Greek ferry routes – carry yours in your day bag, not buried in your hold luggage.
