Ios to Kimolos ferry
The Ios – Kimolos ferry link brings together two wonderfully contrasting Cycladic islands, with the open Aegean marking the gentle transition between them. Leave Ios, known for its bright white villages, golden beaches and lively Chora, and arrive in Kimolos, a smaller, quieter island of volcanic rock, pale beaches and unhurried harbour life.
