Your Itinerary
We recommend that you fly to Athens overnight on Friday evening to connect with the early morning ferry.Transfer from Athens Airport to the port takes 45 minutes by bus (3 Euros!) or taxi (approximately 30 Euros). Once at the port you may board the 'Blue Star' at 0600 local time. You may want to book a berth in a 4 bed cabin (approximately 50 Euros) so that you get some sleep. The ship departs at 0725 local time.
You will be met on arrival at Naxos, Iraklia’s larger neighbour. Following lunch (included) you will join the local ferry, Skopelitis, for the 1 ˝ hour sail to Iraklia. It is not uncommon to see schools of dolphins en route.
You can book your return flight to the UK for Saturday of the following week or, if you prefer, you have the option of spending Saturday Night in Naxos, flying back to the UK on Sunday. You can take an internal flight with Olympic Airways from Naxos to Athens to connect with your international flight.
