Trikeri Paleo to Volos Route Map
Palaio Trikeri, the small islet off the southern tip of the Pelion peninsula, connects up the Pagasetic Gulf to Volos in about an hour and a quarter. Hellenic Coast Lines runs the route with the Chania III, a small conventional boat working the gulf. The crossing stays in sheltered water the whole way, which makes it a calm run in most conditions.
Volos is a modern working city at the head of the Pagasetic Gulf, capital of Magnesia, with the port sitting right in the city centre. Its waterfront promenade of tsipouradika, the traditional tsipouro bars, is the thing most people remember about the place. It is the main gateway to the Pelion peninsula and to the Sporades islands, with good road and rail links to Larissa, Athens and Thessaloniki.
The route runs a handful of times a week and is very much a seasonal service, so check the dates carefully. Current sailings are shown in the table below. From Volos there are onward ferries to Skiathos, Skopelos and Alonissos, and buses up into the Pelion villages.

Tips for the Trikeri Paleo to Volos ferry
- Booking the earliest possible outward sailing gives you the most time on the island and reduces pressure on your return connection.
- Name corrections on ferry tickets are usually possible up to a few hours before departure – contact the operator promptly if you notice a spelling error.
- Winds above Force 8 will cancel almost all Greek ferry services; in summer these conditions are very unusual but not impossible, especially with deep Mediterranean lows.
- If you have mobility issues, inform the ferry company in advance – assistance can be arranged for boarding and disembarkation at most major ports.
- In Volos, the lively waterfront promenade lined with tsipouradika – traditional ouzo-and-meze bars – makes the city a rewarding stop in its own right. The city is also the gateway to the Pelion Peninsula, a region of chestnut-forested mountain villages, traditional stone architecture, and excellent beaches on the Pagasetic Gulf coast.
