Lipsi and Patmos sit close together in the northern Dodecanese, and the crossing between them is one of the easiest inter-island hops in the group. Because both harbours are served by regular inter-island lines rather than a single seasonal operator, boats call in across most of the year rather than only at the height of summer -- check the schedule box above for the latest confirmed dates and operators.
Sailings are busiest through the summer months, when several boats a day link the two harbours. Outside that window the route runs on a lighter pattern rather than stopping altogether, so if you're travelling in the shoulder season it's worth checking the monthly breakdown below for the specific months either side of your trip.
