Why travel by ferry from Kos to Nisyros?

Whether you're travelling alone, as a couple or with the family, a Kos to Nisyros ferry can be a convenient and enjoyable option for getting to Nisyros. Here are 3 reasons why we think a ferry from Kos to Nisyros is an ideal way to travel.

Not to be bored on board... unlike the plane
Generally speaking, to get to Nisyros or anywhere else, the plane is the fastest way. But you are stuck in your seat, strapped in by your seatbelt, and there is almost no opportunity to travel. On the other hand, during the Kos Nisyros crossing on the Dodekanisos Seaways or Blue Star Ferries ferry, you have total freedom in your activities, to eat, walk, entertain or rest. A flight will never provide you with so many services during the trip.
Ferries are ideal for families!
There is no better way to travel between Kos and Nisyros with your family than by ferry. Everything is easier. As soon as you leave Kos, imagine your children exploring the ship, spending long periods playing in the children's play areas or in the video games and arcades (for teenagers), watching the latest films in the cinema, sharing a family meal in the restaurant, or marvelling at a magic show or other countless activities. On board the ferry to Nisyros, time flies by faster than you think and this maritime experience between Kos and Nisyros will remain unforgettable for your children for a long time.
Resting in a cabin
Although booking a cabin on the Kos to Nisyros crossing is optional, it is a comfort that should be enjoyed. Like real hotel rooms, they offer travellers beds, bathrooms and, in some suites, portholes and balconies. Even on a day crossing, enjoying the privacy of a cabin is still possible and much more comfortable than sitting in a lounge.
