Hiring a car

Do you need a car on Folegandros?

Not essential. Folegandros is small, and the bus that meets every ferry runs the 3.5km from the port at Karavostasis up to Chora in about ten minutes for a couple of euros. A car or scooter becomes useful once you want to reach the beaches below Ano Meria or Agali, which the bus does not serve directly. Rental desks operate in Chora, Karavostasis and Ano Meria; compare prices at Discover Cars.

Tips for the Folegandros to Amorgos ferry

  • Take the local bus from Karavostasis to Chora, about 4km away – services are timed to meet ferry arrivals and departures, or use a taxi for the short uphill run to the main village.
  • Arrive at the port in Karavostasis at least 30 to 60 minutes before your ferry is due to sail, since boarding and any last-minute schedule changes need time to sort out.
  • Build a buffer day into your Folegandros trip: the island's ferry routes are among the first suspended when gale-force meltemi winds hit the exposed Aegean crossings in summer.
