Tilos to Lipsi Route Map

Tilos to Lipsi is a long leg on the Blue Star Ferries northbound run, worked by the Blue Star Patmos. It takes a shade under six hours, with calls at intermediate Dodecanese islands along the way. It is a conventional ferry rather than a fast boat, so expect a restaurant, indoor lounges and open deck for the crossing.
Lipsi is a small, quiet island between Leros and Patmos, popular with Greek and Italian summer visitors and short on formal sights. The port sits directly in the main village, so you step off the ship into the heart of town, which is small enough to walk end to end. Most people come for unhurried beach-hopping to spots like Platys Gialos and long lunches at the harbour tavernas.
Sailings are thin, around once a week, and concentrated in the summer months. The current timetable and fares are shown in the table below, with fares starting around €24. Lipsi also has frequent small-boat links with Patmos and Leros, which is often the easier way in if the direct Blue Star sailing does not line up.

Tips for the Tilos to Lipsi ferry
- Port kiosks and cafes are often the only food option before boarding – if you have dietary requirements, eat before you arrive.
- The smell of diesel and engine exhaust is stronger at the stern in summer heat; if you are sensitive to it, choose a bow-facing seat or the upper deck.
- Never put valuables (passport, wallet, phone, camera, medication) in your main luggage – keep them in your day bag on your person at all times.
- A Force 6 wind produces wave heights of 2–3 metres; even passengers who do not normally feel seasick may be affected in these conditions.
- Island-hopping itineraries that move in one direction (e.g. Athens to Rhodes via the Dodecanese) rather than back-and-forth are generally cheaper and less stressful.
