The Rhodes to Astypalea ferry route links one of the Aegean’s most visited islands with one of its most rewarding escapes. Astypalea sits at the western edge of the Dodecanese, butterfly-shaped and unhurried, and the ferry from Rhodes is your gateway to it. The route runs from March through to October, making it a genuine seasonal connection rather than a year-round one.

During the season you can expect around one ferry per day, though sailing days are limited — currently Monday and Thursday — so timing your trip to fit the schedule is essential.
