Description

Set sail from the vibrant heart of Athens to the tranquil island of Agistri; a journey that feels like slipping from one world into another. This ferry route across the sparkling Saronic Gulf is a mini island escape that lets you swap the city’s energy for pine-fringed beaches and turquoise waters in less than an hour. Glide effortlessly aboard the Aegean Flying Dolphins hydrofoil and feel the rhythm of the Aegean carry you away. Your adventure begins at Piraeus Port, Athens’ historic maritime gateway and one of the busiest ports in Europe. Located about 10 km from the city center, it’s easily reachable by metro, bus, or taxi. The ferries to Agistri depart from Gates E8, where you’ll find clear signage and easy boarding points. Travelers are encouraged to arrive at least 30 minutes before departure to find their vessel. On arrival in Agistri, you’ll dock at the charming Port of Skala a small, welcoming harbor lined with tavernas and hotels, just steps from the beach and the main village. The destinations couldn’t be more different yet perfectly connected. Despite its proximity to Athens, Agistri feels worlds away; an intimate, authentic island untouched by mass tourism. A pocket-sized island of emerald pines and crystalline waters. Spend your time swimming at Aponisos or Chalikiada Beach, cycling through pine forests, or savoring fresh seafood by the sea. Agistri is small enough to explore in a day but charming enough to make you want to stay longer. Those beginning their journey in Agistri can look forward to exploring Athens’ ancient ruins, lively neighborhoods, and waterfront promenades, making this route ideal for day-trippers, island hoppers, or weekend adventurers. Onboard, comfort meets convenience. The Aegean Flying Dolphins hydrofoils feature air-conditioned cabins and reserved seating, offering a smooth and speedy crossing with panoramic sea views through large windows. This short journey captures the essence of Greek island travel: effortless, scenic, and unforgettable. Travelers can choose between one-way tickets for flexible travel plans or same-day round-trip tickets for a full day of adventure on the island. If you prefer to stay overnight or return at a different time, it’s easy to book your outbound and return trips separately to match your personal schedule.
