Check-in Information Kos – Syros
For the Kos – Syros ferry with Blue Star Ferries, passengers and vehicles must check in at least 120 minutes before departure. Arriving with time to spare makes for a calmer start, leaving you free to enjoy the harbour atmosphere before sailing into the Aegean.
You do not need to present the supplier ticket at check-in. Bring an accepted form of identification, such as an ID card or passport, and keep it handy as you make your way through the port. Foot passengers are welcome on this route, so a vehicle is not required for the journey from Kos to Syros.
Kos to Syros Ferry
Leaving Kos for Syros means trading the Dodecanese island’s long beaches and sunlit ruins for the distinctive Cycladic character of Syros. This Aegean crossing links Kos with an island known for Ermoupoli, Syros’s handsome capital, where neoclassical facades climb the hills above a lively waterfront. The journey brings two very different Greek island atmospheres together: Kos feels open, coastal and relaxed, while Syros has a more urban, cultured rhythm alongside its beaches and villages. As the coastline of Kos falls away, the ferry journey becomes a memorable part of an island-hopping holiday rather than simply the space between two destinations. For this Blue Star Ferries route option, accommodation is required, helping you settle into the crossing with your onward stay in Syros in mind.
This Kos – Syros ferry page helps you compare the available route option and make a booking that suits the shape of your Greek island trip. You can travel as a foot passenger, as a vehicle is not required for this option, and pet bookings are permitted for travellers bringing an animal companion. Blue Star Ferries requires both passengers and vehicles to check in at least 120 minutes before departure, leaving time for a calm start at the port. You do not need the supplier ticket at check-in, although you should carry the required travel identification; Blue Star Ferries accepts an ID or passport for this route option. Choose your Kos to Syros ferry and look forward to arriving in Ermoupoli with the Cyclades’ bright sea and elegant island scenery already setting the tone for your stay.
