Why travel by ferry from Leros to Symi?

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

Transporting your bike is not a problem
Travelling with your bike on a train, plane or bus is often a nightmare because it is so cumbersome to carry. This is not the case on the ferry. Like any vehicle, your two-wheeler will be parked in the ship's garage. You leave it there for the duration of the Leros-Symi crossing in complete safety and without fear of it being damaged. You will get on your bike in Symi to get off the boat.
Take an unlimited amount of luggage
With the train, bus or plane, an excess of one free piece of luggage is often applied and each additional piece of luggage generates an additional cost. However, when you board a Blue Star Ferries or Dodekanisos Seaways ferry in Leros, you are free to take as much luggage as you like, as long as it is contained in your vehicle. If you are travelling as a pedestrian, the conditions may be more restrictive as you will need to carry your luggage with you until you arrive in Symi. However, it is advisable to ask the crew of Blue Star Ferries or Dodekanisos Seaways, as luggage lockers are often provided for passengers to store their luggage during the crossing.
Taking your time becomes a pleasure
It is well known that we live in a society where everything has to go fast, faster and faster. Sailing at less than 40km/h on board a Blue Star Ferries or Dodekanisos Seaways ferry for the 66 mi between Leros and Symi will be a relaxing stop. All ships are equipped with lounges, restaurants, promenade decks, and sometimes much more... You may even find your Leros-Symi crossing a little too short!
