Getting from Agistri to Milos

If you are heading to Milos from Agistri you are making your way from a small pine-covered island in the Saronic Gulf to one of the most visually striking islands in the Cyclades. It has a volcanic coastline of white and ochre rock formations and beaches that look like nowhere else in the Aegean.

Take the ferry

There is no direct ferry from Agistri to Milos. The most practical approach is to take the Saronic ferry from Agistri to Piraeus, which takes around 55 minutes to 1 hour 35 minutes, and then board the Piraeus to Milos ferry, which runs several times daily in summer and takes around 2.5 to 3.5 hours on the fast boat. Total journey time from Agistri is around 4 to 5 hours and is a very manageable connection.

Getting there by air

Milos has its own small airport with connections from Athens. Taking the Saronic ferry from Agistri to Piraeus, the metro to Athens Airport and flying to Milos takes around 40 to 45 minutes in the air. Total travel time is around 4 to 5 hours. The ferry from Piraeus is often more practical given the frequency and direct delivery to Adamas port in the centre of the island.

Your best option

Take the Saronic ferry from Agistri to Piraeus and board the Piraeus to Milos ferry. It is the most direct and practical approach. If you are traveling with a car, the conventional ferry from Piraeus takes your vehicle directly to Adamas port. Book ahead in summer as Milos is one of the most sought-after islands in the Cyclades and ferries fill up fast.
