Why travel by ferry from Pigadia to Heraklion?

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

It's much less boring than on a plane
Generally speaking, to get to Heraklion or anywhere else, the plane is the fastest way. But it's not always pleasant to be tied to your seat for long hours. During the Pigadia Heraklion ferry journey with ANEK Lines or Blue Star Ferries, there are countless opportunities to enjoy restaurants and bars, or to stroll and sunbathe on a promenade deck... The services and the level of freedom during a flight are radically different!
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. However, when you board a Blue Star Ferries or ANEK Lines ferry in Pigadia, you are free to take as much luggage as you like, as long as it is contained in your vehicle. If you are travelling without a car, then you will be restricted in your movements throughout the journey to Heraklion. However, it is advisable to ask the crew of Blue Star Ferries or ANEK Lines, as luggage lockers are often provided for passengers to store their luggage during the crossing.
Enjoy the fresh sea air
The health benefits of the sea have long been proven. In Pigadia, as soon as you leave the port, take a walk on the deck of the Blue Star Ferries or ANEK Lines boat and enjoy the sea spray and the invigorating oxygen-enriched sea air: a real thalasso cure and very effective for ventilating the lungs! The fresh sea air and the waves that rock the ferry will soothe you instantly. You'll arrive in Heraklion feeling perfectly zen and energised.
