Why travel by ferry from Sitia to Santorini?

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

Because it's the ideal way to travel with your family!
Travelling by ferry is simply the ideal way to travel between Sitia and Santorini when you are with your family and especially with children. Everything is simpler. As soon as you leave Sitia, 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. Your children will remember the Sitia to Santorini ferry trip for a long time.
It's much less boring than on a plane
Generally speaking, to get to Santorini or anywhere else, the plane is the fastest way. But you are stuck in your seat, strapped in by your seatbelt, and there is almost no opportunity to travel. During the Sitia Santorini 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... A flight will never provide you with so many services during the trip.
Resting in a cabin
Although it is not compulsory to make the crossing from Sitia to Santorini 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. Even on a day crossing, enjoying the privacy of a cabin is still possible and much more comfortable than sitting in a lounge.
