Kimolos is one of those Cycladic islands that still feels genuinely untouched — quiet, whitewashed, and refreshingly short on tourist infrastructure. The ferry from Piraeus is your gateway to it, and with daily departures running for most of the year, planning a visit is more straightforward than you might expect for such an off-the-beaten-track destination.
On average, there is one ferry per day on this route. That keeps things simple: one sailing to catch, and a reasonable return schedule to plan around. January sees no service, and October through December are also quiet months, so if you are travelling outside the summer window, February through September is your best bet.
