Vathy to Evdilos Route Map

Map of the north Aegean showing the ferry route west from Vathy to Evdilos.

Vathy to Evdilos takes a little over two hours with Blue Star Ferries on the Blue Star Myconos. The route runs west from Samos Town round to the north coast of Ikaria, usually as part of the longer service towards the Cyclades and Piraeus. It is a full-size conventional ferry, so the crossing is steady even in a stiff meltemi.

Evdilos is Ikaria's north-coast port, its harbour set below a hillside of white and pastel houses. It is a relaxed place and the natural arrival point for the villages, beaches and walking country of northern Ikaria. The island's Blue Zone reputation for longevity is rooted in exactly this unhurried pace of life.

The service runs only a couple of times a fortnight from Vathy, so check the timetable below before relying on it. Karlovassi, on the north coast of Samos, has far more frequent sailings to Evdilos. Ikaria's other port, Agios Kirykos, sits on the south coast and is served by different routes.

Tips for the Vathy to Evdilos ferry

  • Some island routes operate a reduced winter schedule from late October to late March – always confirm the schedule before building a winter itinerary.
  • If one leg of your journey is critical – for example a return to Athens before a flight – book that leg first and plan the rest of the trip around it.
  • In an emergency, follow crew instructions immediately; the muster stations are marked on deck plans posted in corridors and at cabin doors.
  • If you are island-hopping across multiple islands, pack light – you will be lifting your bag on and off ferries, into overhead racks, and up and down steps repeatedly.
