Golden Princess
High-speed waterjet ferry · operated by Golden Star Ferries
A Baltic fast ferry transplanted to the Aegean — waterjet-driven and genuinely quick, it reaches deep into the Cyclades from Rafina in a fraction of the time a conventional ferry takes, at the usual high-speed tradeoff of a more clinical, less breezy ride.
Previously sailed as Gotlandia II.
