If you’re planning a journey from Santorini to Andros, the ferry is your connection between the volcanic south of the Cyclades and the green, unspoilt north. This is a route that operates outside the main tourist season — February and March — so you’ll be travelling with Greeks rather than crowds, and the Aegean will be at its most dramatic and unpredictable.

Tips for the Santorini–Andros Ferry
- The meltemi blows from the north-north-west; routes that run east–west are more exposed than those running north–south along a chain of islands.
- On routes served by high-speed catamarans, all seats are assigned – choose seats towards the centre of the vessel for the smoothest ride in choppy conditions.
- If you have a connecting ferry from the same port, check the departure board immediately on disembarking and confirm the gate for your next vessel.
- In Andros, the elegant capital Chora rewards exploration with its cobbled lanes, neoclassical mansions, and a proud tradition of seafaring culture. Don’t miss the impressive Foros Cave near Aladinos Village, reached via a beautiful 17th-century arched bridge.
