Practical tips
In July, August and on weekends, sailings to the islands can sell out. Book your Agistri ticket online as soon as your dates are fixed, and pick an earlier departure to keep a safety margin.
Athens has three ferry ports: Piraeus, Rafina and Lavrio. They are far from each other, so read your booking confirmation carefully and confirm the departure port before you leave your hotel.
Some sailings to Agistri call at Aegina first. This is normal on Saronic routes, but it affects your arrival time, so check the stops on your booking before choosing a departure.
Strong winds can delay or cancel sailings, especially for faster boats. If you have a flight or onward connection, leave a buffer day and keep your booking details handy to rebook quickly.
If you visit for a day trip, confirm the last return sailing of the day before you book. Small islands can have fewer evening departures, and missing the last boat means an unplanned night.
The journey experience
Agistri is the easiest island escape from Athens: a small, pine-covered Saronic island that works perfectly as a day trip or a relaxed two-night break. For this route the answer is simple, because the ferry is the way to go. There is no need to weigh up coach, train and flight, and you can compare the crossing details in the table on this page.
The crossing is a short sea hop from the Athens port area, aboard a conventional ferry or a faster hydrofoil-style boat, depending on the day and the season. Boats are comfortable, with indoor seating and open decks where you can watch the coast slip away. Several companies serve the Saronic islands, so times and fares can differ from one sailing to the next. Agistri is often reached via Aegina on some sailings, so check whether your boat stops there before you book.
The main thing to get right is the departure port. For Agistri, check your ticket carefully and confirm the departure port before leaving your accommodation, since Athens has Piraeus, Rafina and Lavrio and they are far apart. Timetables shift with the season, so always check the date you travel. In summer and on weekends, book ahead so you are not left with a sold-out sailing, and keep a little flexibility in case of strong winds. Book online for instant confirmation and travel with peace of mind.
