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.
Pserimos to Kalymnos is one of the shortest hops in the Dodecanese, taking somewhere between twenty and thirty minutes on the small local boats that work this stretch. ANEM and the Lafasi operation run it with the Olympios Ermis and the Hlias T., day-boats rather than car ferries, so you board on foot with your bag in hand. The channel is narrow and sheltered, and you are alongside at Pothia almost before you have settled.
Kalymnos is the sponge-diving island, and Pothia, its port and capital, wears that history openly. The harbour is ringed by a working town rather than a resort strip, with sponge workshops and shops near the waterfront and a rugged interior behind. Climbers know the island well, since the limestone walls above Massouri have made it an internationally recognised destination, and the beaches on the west coast stay quieter than those on neighbouring Kos.
The crossing runs roughly once a day through the season, and fares are low, starting around €3.50. The current timetable and fares are shown in the table below. From Pothia you can pick up the larger Blue Star and catamaran services heading north towards Leros and Patmos or south towards Kos and Rhodes.

- Some seasonal ferry routes only operate from late May to late September or early October – check whether your route is year-round before booking.
- In Kalymnos, world-class rock climbing routes in the island's limestone cliffs have made it a magnet for climbers from across Europe, while the sheltered pebbly beach of Vlychadia and other coastal spots offer superb swimming. The island also has a deep tradition as a sponge-diving centre, which still shapes its culture today.
