Getting from Andros to Kylini

If you are heading to Kylini from Andros you are making your way from the northernmost island in the Cyclades to a port town on the northwestern Peloponnese coast. It has a long sandy beach and the medieval castle of Chlemoutsi nearby, one of the best preserved Frankish fortifications in Greece.

Take the ferry

There is no direct ferry from Andros to Kylini. Getting there means taking the ferry from Andros to Rafina, which runs up to 11 times daily and takes around 1 to 2 hours, and then driving west to Kylini, which takes around 3 to 3.5 hours from Athens via the E65 motorway and Patras.

Getting there by air

Kylini has no airport. The nearest airport is Athens. Andros has no airport either. Taking the ferry from Andros to Rafina and then driving to Kylini gives a total journey time of around 4 to 5 hours. Flying is not a practical option for this route.

Your best option

Take the ferry from Andros to Rafina and drive west to Kylini via the E65 motorway through Corinth and Patras. It is the most practical approach. If you are traveling with a car, the ferry from Andros already puts you at Rafina with your vehicle, then drive west to Kylini via Patras.
