The last known sailing on this route was on 24 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.

Patmos to Megisti, better known as Kastellorizo, is the full run to the far southeastern corner of Greece, around thirteen and a half hours on the Blue Star Patmos. The ship calls at several Dodecanese islands before making the long final leg past Rhodes. It is a genuine sea journey and usually done overnight.

Kastellorizo is Greece's easternmost inhabited island, sitting just off the Turkish coast near Kas. The port town wraps around a small bay in a horseshoe of pastel neoclassical houses, which is the image most people know from the film Mediterraneo. There is little to do beyond eating well by the water and taking a boat out to the Blue Cave, and that is rather the point.

The route runs about once a week and only during the season. Current departures and fares are shown in the table below, starting around thirty one euros. The island also has a small airport with flights via Rhodes, which is the quicker way in or out.
