The Amorgos to Donoussa ferry route carries you from one of the Cyclades’ most dramatic islands to one of its most peaceful. Donoussa sits at the eastern edge of the Small Cyclades group, and this crossing is the direct link between the two — no island-hopping detours required.

Service runs throughout the year, with around one ferry per day on average. That frequency keeps things straightforward: check the timetable, book your ticket, and you’re on your way.

Tips for the Amorgos–Donoussa Ferry

  • Amorgos has two ferry ports, Katapola in the south and Aegiali in the north, about 20km apart by road and roughly 30 to 40 minutes' drive. Always check which port your ticket departs from before setting off, as the two are not interchangeable.
  • The Donoussa crossing is usually run by the small Express Skopelitis ferry, which is more sensitive to rough weather than larger vessels on the main Piraeus routes. In poor conditions check locally, as sailings can be delayed or cancelled at short notice.
  • A local bus links Chora to Katapola port, but its timetable shifts seasonally and is only loosely tied to ferry times, so confirm departure times locally rather than relying on a fixed schedule, especially for early sailings.
  • Avoid heavy meals immediately before boarding if you are prone to seasickness; a light snack is fine but a full taverna lunch is not ideal.
  • In Donoussa, one of the Small Cyclades between Naxos and Amorgos, the pace of life is unhurried and the beaches are genuinely secluded. The island is ideal for swimming and hiking between coves in an authentic, crowd-free setting.
