Ferry from Syros (Ermoupoli) to Katapola (Amorgos)

Syros and Amorgos sit at opposite ends of the Cyclades in character as much as in geography. Syros is the archipelago's administrative capital -- orderly, lived-in, with a harbour town that functions year-round rather than just for visitors. Amorgos is something else entirely: raw, remote, and the kind of island that rewards the effort it takes to reach it. This ferry route bridges those two worlds, running from February through June before the direct service quietly stops for the summer.

With one departure per day and sailings limited to specific days of the week, the timetable shapes your trip. Book early, even in the quieter shoulder months. Miss the boat and there is no second sailing to fall back on.

Hiring a car

Can you rent a car in Syros?

Yes, and rental desks cluster right in Ermoupoli, a short walk from where the ferry docks. Syros Town itself is easily walkable, but a car earns its keep for reaching Kini, Galissas and Poseidonia beaches, each 8-10km away on the other side of the island.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tips for the Syros to Katapola ferry

• The ferry dock sits right in Ermoupoli town centre, close to hotels, cafés and the bus station, so you can walk to most accommodation. In peak summer, arrive at least an hour early, or 60–90 minutes if you're bringing a car.
• There's no single ferry ticket office at the port – tickets are issued by several independent travel agencies clustered near the harbour, so check your booking confirmation for pickup details rather than expecting one terminal counter.
• A taxi rank is around 100 metres from the dock, but ranks empty fast in August, so pre-book a taxi or arrange a hotel transfer in advance rather than relying on hailing one on arrival.
• If you arrive in port before your accommodation check-in time, most hotels will store your luggage and let you use the pool or common areas – ask when you book.
• In an emergency, follow crew instructions immediately; the muster stations are marked on deck plans posted in corridors and at cabin doors.
