Thymena to Agios Kirykos takes somewhere between three quarters of an hour and about an hour and a half on the Megalochari, run by Sea Gem Maritime Company. It is a small local ferry linking the Fourni cluster with Ikaria, so it is a working boat rather than a comfortable liner. The crossing time varies with the calls made on the way.
Agios Kirykos is the capital and main port of Ikaria, a workaday harbour town rather than a polished resort. The town's thermal spa facilities sit close to the harbour, drawing on the hot springs Ikaria has long been known for, and the island's reputation for longevity keeps a steady trickle of interest. Buses and taxis run from here across to Evdilos on the north coast, though the mountain road takes a while.
The service runs around four times a week, so it wants planning around; the current timetable and fares are shown below. These small-boat schedules are weather-sensitive, so leave slack if you have a flight or a mainline ferry to catch. Ikaria has an airport and connections onward to Samos and Piraeus.
