Katapola, Amorgos's main harbour, sits in a deep, sheltered bay a short walk from the village, so there is none of the taxi scramble you get at busier island ports. Paros, at the other end, is one of the best-connected islands in the Cyclades, which is why this crossing draws everyone from day-trippers to islanders topping up on supplies. Depending on which boat you catch, you are either on a fast catamaran that clips across open water in under two hours, or a conventional ferry that threads a longer route through the archipelago, calling at other islands along the way and giving you a proper look at the Cyclades from the deck.
Demand builds steadily as summer progresses, with the timetable at its fullest in July and August and thinning slightly either side of peak season. Sailings run daily, so with a bit of flexibility you should be able to find a departure that fits your plans -- check the schedule box above for the current frequency and confirmed sailing dates.

Ferry Companies
The Amorgos–Paros route is served by 2 companies:
- SeaJets – approximately 1 hour 50 minutes
- Blue Star Ferries – approximately 4 hours 15 minutes
SeaJets runs the high-speed option, useful if you are tight on time or hopping onward the same day. Blue Star's conventional ferry takes considerably longer but tends to be steadier in a swell and is the better choice if you would rather sit out on deck than be confined to an air-conditioned cabin.
Tips for the Amorgos–Paros 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.
- If your booking allows free cancellation up to a certain date, set a calendar reminder a few days before that deadline in case your plans change.
- In Paros, the charming fishing village of Naoussa on the north coast is the best place to eat fresh seafood at family-run waterfront tavernas. The main town of Parikia has an impressive Byzantine cathedral built from the marble of ancient temples, and the island's beaches – particularly Kolymbithres with its sculpted granite rocks – are among the most striking in the Cyclades.

Can you rent a car in Paros?
Yes, and rental desks cluster right by the port in Parikia, most just a couple of minutes' walk from where the ferry docks. A car earns its keep here: nowhere on Paros is more than about 30 minutes' drive away, opening up marble-quarry villages and quieter southern beaches that the KTEL bus network doesn't reach directly. Compare local suppliers at Discover Cars if you'd rather not rely on the bus timetable.
