Getting from Antiparos to Agistri
If you are heading to Agistri from Antiparos you are making your way from a small quiet island 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 Antiparos to Agistri. Antiparos is connected only to Paros by a 7 minute ferry from Pounta running every 30 minutes in summer. Getting to Agistri means taking the short ferry from Antiparos to Paros, making your way to Piraeus and then boarding 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.
Getting there by air
Agistri has no airport. The nearest airport is Athens. Antiparos has no airport either. Taking the short ferry from Antiparos to Paros, making your way to Piraeus and taking the Saronic ferry to Agistri 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 short ferry from Antiparos to Paros, make your way to Piraeus and board the Saronic ferry 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 short ferry from Antiparos to Paros and drive to Piraeus for the conventional ferry across to Agistri.
