Anafi to Diafani ferry
The ferry from Anafi to Diafani links two wonderfully remote sides of the Greek islands, carrying you from the quiet Cycladic landscape of Anafi towards the dramatic north coast of Karpathos. Anafi, lying east of Santorini, is known for its stark hills, whitewashed village and peaceful, unhurried rhythm. Diafani is the small harbour village at the northern end of Karpathos, beneath rugged mountains and close to the traditional mountain settlement of Olympos. This is a crossing for travellers who enjoy the Aegean as part of the adventure: open water, distant island silhouettes and the feeling of moving beyond the busiest Greek island routes. Arriving in Diafani places you in a wilder corner of the Dodecanese, where the coastline and high interior have kept a strong local character.
