Why travel by ferry from Santorini to Diafani?

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

So you don't have to worry about the amount of luggage
With other modes of transport, we are often limited to 1 piece of luggage, and each additional piece of luggage is charged. For the Santorini to Diafani crossing, as long as all your luggage is contained in your car, no supplement is required. 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 Diafani. However, it is worth asking the Aigaion Pelagos, Blue Star Ferries or ANEK Lines staff if the ship has a luggage storage facility where you can leave your bags until you reach Diafani.
For the comfort of a cabin
Although it is not compulsory to make the crossing from Santorini to Diafani by booking a cabin, you are depriving yourself of a comfort that the ferry is the only mode of transport to offer. Like real hotel rooms, they offer travellers beds, bathrooms and, in some suites, portholes and balconies. 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
Driving for miles on end is not very relaxing, especially if you add the risk of traffic jams and accidents. The Santorini Diafani ferry trip is exactly the opposite. On board, depending on the Aigaion Pelagos, Blue Star Ferries or ANEK Lines ship in service, everything is designed to give you time to relax in the calm of comfortable reclining lounges, to lounge on the outside decks, to entertain and to have fun. You're sure to start your holiday in Diafani already rested.
