Why travel by ferry from Rhodes to Leros?

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

No need to worry about travelling with your bike
On the train, bus or plane, it is often very complicated and sometimes impossible to travel with this cumbersome companion: your bike. However, on a ferry, you don't have this problem: your bike is loaded directly into the ship's huge garage. You leave it there for the duration of the Rhodes-Leros crossing in complete safety and without fear of it being damaged. You will get on your bike in Leros to get off the boat.
For the comfort of a cabin
Although it is not compulsory to make the crossing from Rhodes to Leros by booking a cabin, you are depriving yourself of a comfort that the ferry is the only mode of transport to offer. Equipped with berths, private bathrooms and sometimes even portholes or balconies, the cabins are not unlike real hotel rooms. Even on a day crossing, enjoying the privacy of a cabin is still possible and much more comfortable than sitting in a lounge.
Not to be bored on board... unlike the plane
Generally speaking, to get to Leros 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. During the Rhodes Leros ferry journey with Dodekanisos Seaways or Blue Star Ferries, there are countless opportunities to enjoy restaurants and bars, or to stroll and sunbathe on a promenade deck... You will never have so much freedom and entertainment during a flight!
