The Santorini to Amorgos ferry route is one of the more rewarding island hops in the Cyclades, trading the crowds of Santorini’s famous caldera for the raw, unhurried atmosphere of one of Greece’s most unspoilt islands. Ferries run from April through to October, so there’s no winter service to worry about missing.
Through the season you can count on roughly one ferry per day, with a small uptick to two on some peak summer days — enough to give you flexibility without overcomplicating your planning.

Tips for the Santorini–Amorgos Ferry
- Port areas on Greek islands are compact but they get busy when a ferry arrives. Have your onward transport plan or accommodation address ready so you can move through quickly rather than standing in the way figuring it out.
- Your confirmation email may include a QR code for boarding – screenshot it and zoom in before you reach the scanner so you have a clear, close-up image ready to scan at the gate.
- Sunscreen and insect repellent are considerably cheaper at a supermarket before you board than at island resort shops. Stock up before you leave the mainland.
- Amorgos rewards the curious traveller: dramatic scenery, superb hiking trails, and the iconic Hozoviotissa Monastery, which clings to a sheer cliff face high above the sea. The island gained international fame as the filming location for Luc Besson’s film The Big Blue.
