Piraeus to Katapola Route Map

Map of the Cyclades showing the ferry route east-south-east from Piraeus, the port of Athens, to Katapola on Amorgos.

The Piraeus to Amorgos ferry is your gateway to one of the most remote and unspoilt islands in the Cyclades. Departing from Greece’s main port, the route carries you deep into the Aegean, past a string of smaller islands before arriving at Amorgos — the easternmost and arguably most dramatic of the Cycladic chain.

Service runs throughout the year, though you’ll find more choice in the warmer months. On average there is about 1 ferry per day across the year. In summer (June–August), departures rise to between 1 and 2 per day, giving you more flexibility; in winter, a ferry runs roughly every other day, keeping the island connected with the mainland.

Hiring a car

Can you rent a car in Piraeus?

Yes, several agencies meet passengers directly at the ferry gates (E1 to E12), so there is no need to arrange transport into central Athens first. It suits travellers continuing on to the mainland rather than islanders, since central Athens is only 20 minutes away and has good metro and bus links. Compare local suppliers at Discover Cars.

Tips for the Piraeus to Katapola ferry

  • Piraeus port is large, with departure gates E1 to E10 spread along the waterfront – allow extra time to find yours, as it can be a 15–20 minute walk from the metro station, and check the gate number printed on your ticket.
  • Ferries to the Saronic islands – Aegina, Hydra and the nearby islands – depart from Gate E8, while Cyclades sailings (Mykonos, Santorini, Paros, Naxos) leave from gates in the E6–E10 range, so double-check your specific gate on arrival.
  • Take Metro Line 1 or Line 3 to Piraeus station, then use the free shuttle bus that circulates around the port roughly every 10–15 minutes, linking the metro to all gates – useful if your ferry departs from a distant terminal such as E2 or E3.
  • There is no parking inside the port itself, so if you are driving, use one of the private car parks nearby rather than looking for a space at the gate; ticket booths at each gate can print e-tickets if you have not already.
  • Ferry cancellations are announced on the operator's website and app, and also through the Hellenic Coast Guard (limenarxeio) at the departure port.
