The crossing between Agia Marina and Lipsi is one of the shortest hops in this part of the Aegean, linking Leros's harbour with the quiet island of Lipsi in well under an hour on the fastest boats. Agia Marina sits close to the centre of Leros, so there's no long transfer to arrange before boarding. Sailings are confirmed well into the year; check the schedule box above for the latest published dates rather than assuming a fixed end date.
Frequency follows the seasons rather than staying constant. Through the summer months there are enough sailings most days that Lipsi works as a genuine day trip from Leros, with a reasonable choice of return times. Outside peak season the timetable thins out considerably, so it's worth checking the schedule above before you build a plan around a particular crossing.
