The Naxos to Amorgos ferry route takes you from one of the Cyclades’ largest and most varied islands to one of its most dramatic and remote. It’s a crossing that rewards travellers willing to venture a little further east, away from the busier island circuits. Ferries run from March through to October, giving you a solid window across spring, summer, and the quieter autumn months.
Frequency builds steadily as the season progresses. In the shoulder months you can expect around two departures a day, while peak summer brings up to five sailings daily — useful if your itinerary is tight or you’re travelling as part of a larger island-hopping trip.

Tips for the Naxos–Amorgos Ferry
- Expect a short walk into town – Naxos port sits right at the edge of Chora, with shops, cafés and the Portara landmark only a few minutes away, so you will not need a taxi if your accommodation is central.
- Arrive at least 45 minutes before departure and confirm your departure gate on the day, since Naxos is one of the busiest Cycladic ports, with several operators and vessels often docked at once.
- If you are catching the Express Skopelitis local ferry to the Small Cyclades, it usually berths away from the main quay used by Blue Star and the high-speed ferries, so check where it is tied up when you arrive.
- Alcohol makes seasickness worse; if the crossing is rough, stick to water and plain foods.
- In Amorgos, you'll find dramatic landscapes, superb hiking trails, and the iconic Hozoviotissa Monastery clinging to a sheer cliff face above the sea. The island gained international fame as the filming location for Luc Besson's film The Big Blue.
