Poros to Methana Route Map
Poros to Methana is one of the shortest scheduled crossings in the Saronic, fifteen to thirty minutes across the strait depending on whether you catch a fast catamaran or a conventional ferry. Magic Sea Ferries and Saronic Ferries both work it, with the Magic 3, Apollon Hellas, Phivos and Poseidonas. The conventional boats take cars, which makes this the practical way to get a vehicle between the island and the Peloponnese side.
Methana is a volcanic peninsula attached to the Peloponnese, though the ferry links make it feel like one of the Saronic islands. It is a quiet spa town on a landscape of old craters, with thermal and mud baths and hiking on the volcanic ground above. It sees far fewer visitors than Hydra or Poros, which is much of the point.
Sailings run a couple of times a day, more in the summer months, so this is a connection you can generally make work. Live departures and fares are shown below. Methana is also a scheduled call on the Piraeus to Spetses line, so onward links along the gulf are straightforward.

Hiring a car
Do you need a car on Poros?
Not really. Poros is small, about 7 by 4 miles, and cars are banned from the tiny town centre in summer, so everyone parks near the port and walks. Scooters are cheap and cover the rest of the island easily, and small boats run constantly from the port to the beaches. Car hire does exist if you'd rather have four wheels; check current listings at Discover Cars.
