Why travel by ferry from Athens to Spetses?

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

So you don't have to worry about the 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. On the Athens Spetses ferry, you can take as much luggage as you like, within the capacity of 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 Spetses. However, it is worth asking the Hellenic Seaways or Alpha Lines staff if the ship has a luggage storage facility where you can leave your bags until you reach Spetses.
Not to be bored on board... unlike the plane
As a general rule, a trip from Athens to Spetses is much quicker by plane. 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 Athens Spetses crossing on the Alpha Lines or Hellenic Seaways ferry, you have total freedom in your activities, to eat, walk, entertain or rest. The services and the level of freedom during a flight are radically different!
Because it's the ideal way to travel with your family!
If you have children, there's no better way to travel from Athens to Spetses as a family than by ferry. Everything is simpler. As soon as you leave Athens, 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. This boat trip between Athens and Spetses will remain an unforgettable moment for your children.
