Ferry schedules to and from Samothraki in 2023

Hello,
The schedules for after Sep 5 weren't announced yet. We will update the site as soon as the ferry company will make them public.

Now they are!

????????? ????!

Hello, not yet

Hi, is the timetable for November now available? Thank you for your advice.

Hi Anna,

The timetable is only available till the 9th of November. For the moment the ship Proteus replaces Adamantios Korais.

Thank you so much for your quick reply! May I ask, if the ship Proteus will connect Alexandroupoli and Samothraki daily after the 9th of November? Or might it be possible that the ferry does not run every day?

I'm not sure, but I think it will continue to run every day, except for the Wednesdays, when there's only one way (Alexandroupoli-Samothraki), without returning on the same day.

Yes, they will run (if the weather permits it), but the timetable was not yet announced.

thank you im a little concerned as im aware there is a changeover of ships on monday and I need to be at the airport for Monday - so wether permitting this current ship will continuue to sail until this weekend?

I'm sorry, I can't tell you yet. There has been no official announcement, but the ferry company should announce it soon.

Yes, of course, as long as the weather allows it.

Hi Gabriella,
As there are many problems with the weather these days, it's better to call Zante Ferries - 25510 82289.

Yes, the law says that in order to travel by ferry to the islands you have to fill a form and you have to present a certificate of vaccination (minimum 14 days after the second dose) OR a PCR test (taken within the last 72 hours) OR a self or rapid test (taken within the last 24 hours) OR a certificate of recovery (2-9 months).

You can read about it here (you can use Google Translate):

Starting from the 5th of July rapid tests must not be older than 48 hours and self test are no longer admissible.

Yes, in Kamariotissa, right near Pireos Bank

Hi,
It's difficult to say. Usually there are no problems to buy tickets on the spot, but if you want to be sure it's better to book in advance, especially in high season.

Hi,
Yes, the ferry departs at 15.30 from Alexandroupoli for Samothraki. Normally you could buy tickets directly in the harbour, but in august there were some cases when the ship was full. So it depends...

Hi,
Between September 6th and October 31st the departures from Alexandroupoli to Samothraki are: 08.00 (Mon, Tue), 15.00 (Wed, Thu, Sun), 15.30 (Fri), 09.00 (Sat).

Hi Anne Marie,
I don't know, it depends on the ferry company. Personally I think that it will be published in 7-10 days, but it's just a personal opinion.

Hi Dimitar,
The ferry company didn't announce yet the holiday schedules.

Hi Irini,
At the moment there is nothing announced, maybe it is too early. Please contact Zante Ferries at 25510 82289.

Hi Martin, there's no problem taking the bike on the ferry. I don't think you'll have to pay for it, but just to be sure check with Zante Ferries beforehand (+302551082289). There is a parking lot in Alexandroupoli on the right just outside the ferry terminal. The price is 1.5 EUR for the first hour, 1.5 EUR for the second hour, 3 EUR beginning with the third hour till midnight (then the second day of parking begins and so on).

Thanks for the response. :)
So if We leave the car at that parking lot for 9 days - we would pay 9 days x 3 EUR = 27 EUR? Is that correct?
Thank you.

Hi Martin, I just went by the parking. The prices are a little higher this season: 2 EUR for the first hour, 1 EUR for the second hour and then +0,2 - + 0,5 EUR per hour. If you want to leave the car for 24 hours the price will be 10 EUR, so for 9 days the parking will cost you 90 EUR.

Hi Leilani,
I think Athens Car Rental allows you, but please check with them (athens-carrental.com). There is also the option to rent a car on the island.

Thank you so much! I'll check with athens-carrental.

Yes, just contact the ferry company.

During off-season you can purchase the tickets directly from the port. In peak season...well, it depends on the demand. I usually advise people to book the tickets in advance. Last year there were days when the ferry was full and there weren't any tickets available for the current day.

Hi Manuel,
Unfortunately no, there will be no routes to Limnos after the 4th of September.

Hi Mariana,
The schedule in the article is updated. On the 1st of September the ferry departs at 16.00 from Alexandroupoli. On the 8th of September there are two departures from Samothraki to Alexandroupoli: at 07.00 and at 17.30.

Of course, the ferry carries both passengers and cars.

Where can i find a price list?

Hi Eli,
I don't know when the new schedule will be announced. Yes, the ferry from Alexandroupoli to Samothraki will also run in November (it runs all year long).

Hi Elfie,
No, unfortunately there aren't.

Hi, it wasn't announced yet but there is a big chance it's the same as in January.

Thank you.

Hi,
Most probably the ferry route from Samothraki to Limnos will start at the beginning of June.

Thanks! So the only way to get to Limnos is going back to Alexandroupoli and take the ferry to Limnos?

No, because it is the same ferry that will go to Limnos during summer (the route is Alexandroupoli-Samothraki-Limnos). To get to Limnos you can get Blue Star Ferries from Kavala. In May there is a ferry on Wednesdays:

It wasn't published yet. It will most probably be published in the month of April.

Hi Emily,
They usually run every day, except for Wednesdays, when there is no ferry from Samothraki to Alexandroupoli.

Thank you!!

Hi,
It wasn't published yet.
