Kos to Leipsoi Ferry

The ferry from Kos to Leipsoi links one of the Dodecanese’ liveliest islands with a wonderfully low-key corner of the Aegean. Leaving Kos, the coastline gradually gives way to open water and the scattered outlines of neighbouring islands, making the crossing feel like a gentle step away from the bustle of a larger resort island. Leipsoi is a small, tranquil island in the Dodecanese, known for its compact harbour village, whitewashed houses and clear bays. Life here moves at an unhurried pace, with fishing boats, waterfront tavernas and walking paths leading towards quiet beaches and broad sea views. It is an appealing destination for travellers who want to slow down, swim in clear water and experience a more intimate side of the Greek islands.

Select the sailing that works for your trip and let the sea crossing become part of the holiday rather than simply the way there.
