During the Santorini Sifnos ferry journey with Aegean Sea Lines, Zante Ferries, Sea Jets or Aegean Speed Lines, there are countless opportunities to enjoy restaurants and bars, or to stroll and sunbathe on a promenade deck... A flight will never provide you with so many services during the trip.

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 travel from Santorini to Sifnos with complete peace of mind, without fear of damage to your bike. You will find it when you disembark on your arrival in Sifnos.
