Getting from Anafi to Agistri
If you are heading to Agistri from Anafi you are making your way from one of the most remote islands in the Cyclades to a small pine-covered island in the Saronic Gulf, on the opposite side of Greece. It is almost entirely covered in forest with good beaches and clear water close to Athens.
Take the ferry
There is no direct ferry from Anafi to Agistri. Getting there means taking the ferry from Anafi to Santorini, flying to Athens and then taking the Saronic ferry from Piraeus to Agistri, which takes around 55 minutes to 1 hour 35 minutes with up to 15 daily departures in summer. Alternatively, take the overnight ferry from Anafi to Piraeus and board the Saronic ferry to Agistri from there.
Getting there by air
Agistri has no airport. The nearest airport is Athens. Anafi has no airport either. Taking the ferry from Anafi to Santorini, flying to Athens and then taking the Saronic ferry from Piraeus to Agistri gives a total journey time of around 5 to 6 hours. In Greece, airlines do not operate direct inter island flights.
Your best option
Take the ferry from Anafi to Santorini, fly to Athens and take the Saronic ferry from Piraeus to Agistri. With up to 15 daily departures in summer you never need to book the Piraeus to Agistri connection in advance. If you are traveling with a car, take the overnight ferry from Anafi to Piraeus and take the conventional ferry across to Agistri.
