Why travel by ferry from Kimolos to Athens?

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

Resting in a cabin
Although it is not compulsory to make the crossing from Kimolos to Athens 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. While their use is most obvious on an overnight crossing, it is perfectly possible to book one during the day.
To not get tired, unlike in the car
Because of the heightened alertness required to drive a car on long journeys, driving is exhausting. The Kimolos Athens ferry trip is exactly the opposite. Ferries operated by Zante Ferries, Sea Jets or Aegean Speed Lines are designed with areas dedicated to relaxation or entertainment: lounges or cabins, outdoor solarium, bars and restaurants... You arrive in Athens stress-free and totally relaxed.
To get some sea air
The health benefits of the sea have long been proven. During the Kimolos-Athens crossing, access the outside areas of the Zante Ferries, Sea Jets or Aegean Speed Lines ship to take a deep breath of air. The fresh sea air and the waves that rock the ferry will soothe you instantly. You'll arrive in Athens feeling perfectly zen and energised.
