The run from Pserimos across to Kos takes about half an hour on the Olympios Ermis, ANEM's small passenger boat. It is a foot-passenger crossing on a modest vessel, so it is more like a long harbour transfer than a ferry journey. In settled summer weather the channel is calm, though the meltemi can make it lively.
Kos is much the largest island in this corner of the Dodecanese, flat, green in parts, and geared to beach holidays and family tourism. Boats tie up in Kos Town, right beside the Castle of the Knights, which is the first thing you see from the water. Beyond the harbour there is the Asklepieion, easy cycling on the island's level roads, and a good spread of tavernas and bars within walking distance of the quay.
Sailings are limited, a handful over a fortnight rather than a daily fixture, so it pays to plan around them. Current departures and fares are listed below. Kos Town is a busy hub in its own right, with onward ferries and catamarans to Kalymnos, Nisyros, Rhodes and Piraeus, plus an airport a short drive away.

Hiring a car
Can you rent a car in Kos?
Yes. The ferry port sits right in Kos Town, about 2km from the centre, a 20-25 minute walk or five-minute drive, with rental desks nearby. Buses run regularly between the main towns but thin out fast once you leave them, so a car is worth it if you want to reach the Asclepion, Mount Dikeos villages or the quieter beaches.

Tips for the Pserimos to Kos ferry
- Disembarkation announcements are made in Greek and English on most vessels; listen for your port name as the ferry approaches.
- Winds above Force 8 will cancel almost all Greek ferry services; in summer these conditions are very unusual but not impossible, especially with deep Mediterranean lows.
- Short crossings are less affected by meltemi conditions than longer open-sea routes – but sheltered routes between close neighbours are calmer than fully exposed ones.
- In Kos, ancient history and beach life sit side by side – the Tree of Hippocrates in Kos Town is said to be the very spot where the father of medicine taught, while the nearby Asklepion was one of antiquity's most important healing sanctuaries. The island's long sandy beaches and flat terrain, ideal for cycling, make it one of the most accessible of the Dodecanese.
