Getting from Amorgos to Alonissos

If you are heading to Alonissos from Amorgos you are making your way from the most eastern of the Cyclades to the most remote of the Sporades group, in the northern Aegean. It has a densely forested coastline, a beautifully preserved old village above the port and a marine park that protects the largest colony of Mediterranean monk seals in Europe.

 

Take the ferry

There is no direct ferry from Amorgos to Alonissos. The two islands are in completely different parts of Greece with no sea connection between them. Getting there means taking the ferry from Amorgos to Naxos, flying to Athens and then flying to Skiathos and taking the short ferry from Skiathos to Alonissos, which takes around 1 to 2 hours. Alternatively, take the overnight ferry from Amorgos to Piraeus, drive to Volos or Mantoudi and take the ferry to Alonissos. Note that as of 2026 there are no departures from Agios Konstantinos to Alonissos.

 

Getting there by air

Alonissos has no airport. The nearest airport is Skiathos. Amorgos has no airport either. Taking the ferry from Amorgos to Naxos, flying to Athens and then Athens to Skiathos, followed by the ferry from Skiathos to Alonissos, gives a total journey time of around 6 to 7 hours. In Greece, airlines do not operate direct inter island flights.

 

Your best option

Take the ferry from Amorgos to Naxos, fly to Athens and then fly to Skiathos and take the ferry across to Alonissos. It is the most practical approach. If you are traveling with a car, take the overnight ferry from Amorgos to Piraeus and drive to Volos or Mantoudi for the ferry to Alonissos from there.
