These are the sailings we recorded on this route from October 2025 to September 2026. They show what ran then, not a forecast: timetables change from year to year.

Tinos to Heraklio is a high-speed run of around five and a quarter hours down through the Cyclades to Crete, worked by Seajets with the Worldchampion Jet and Champions League Jet 2. These are large fast catamarans carrying vehicles as well as foot passengers, with airline-style seating and limited outside deck. The route calls at other islands on the way south, so it is a stopping service rather than a straight crossing.

Heraklio is the capital of Crete and one of the busiest ports in Greece, so you arrive into a full-scale city. The Venetian fortress of Koules stands at the old harbour entrance with the restored arsenali beside it, and the archaeological museum and Venetian old town are a short walk from the waterfront. The Palace of Knossos is a few kilometres out and easily reached by city bus.

Sailings run about once a day through the summer and largely disappear outside the season. Current times, vessels and fares are listed in the timetable below. From Heraklio there are onward ferries to Piraeus and connections along the Cretan coast, which makes it a practical place to end a Cyclades run.
