Ferries from Sporades Islands to Cyclades Islands

About Sporades Islands:

The Sporades, meaning ‘those scattered’, are a group of islands along the east coast of Greece in the Aegean Sea.

Of the 24 islands, only 4 are inhabited: Alonnisos, Skiathos, Skopelos and Skyros, which are characterised by fertile plains, dense pine forest and beautiful beaches. They offer a slightly different Greek island experience than most, with their traditional architecture, relaxing atmosphere and secluded coves.

The Sporades have something for everyone; Skopelos and Alonissos are best suited to families, whilst Skiathos has lively bars and more in the way of an exciting nightlife. Finally, the least travelled island, Skyros boasts an attractive capital town and quiet beaches.

Given their proximity to the mainland, there is a wide choice of high-speed sailings to a few locations on the eastern coast of Greece. You can also choose from equally frequent routes within the Sporades, which are all operated by one of the country’s most popular ferry companies.

About Cyclades Islands:

The Cyclades are an archipelago in Greece, southeast of the mainland in the Aegean Sea, containing just thirty three inhabited islands from a total of two hundred and twenty.

Quintessentially Greek, this is arguably the best selection of islands in the Aegean. Standing out from the crowd are Mykonos and Santorini, earning international stardom with their white-washed villages, glistening waters, rugged coastlines and jumping nightlife. Uninhabited, the centrally located Delos is the supposed birthplace of Apollo, boasting intricate mosaics and breath-taking monuments of antiquity. They offer everything you would expect from this beautiful part of the world; so depending on where you step off the ferry, you can hike glorious trails, relax on fine beaches or indulge in fresh, classic Greek dishes.

The demand for ferries in Greece is incredibly high, resulting in top-quality services and frequent sailings to and from many destinations. The Cyclades are no different, with regular ferry routes from numerous islands, within the archipelago, and from ports on the mainland, including Piraeus in Athens.
