Route

Arki to Leros

2 operators run this water, from 1 h 10 to 2 h 40 — a difference of 1 h 30 on the same crossing. Leros has an airport 8 km from the quay, so this is a crossing you can make one way and fly the other.

Every way across

One row per operator and speed. Where a service is sold as fast and its average does not clear 45 km/h, the word appears in quotation marks — the boat is fast craft, the crossing is not.

SAOS Ferries Arki → Leros 30 km conventional crossing 2 h 40 rate not held 11 km/h average

Other ways to reach Leros

If this crossing does not suit, these quays also reach Leros without a change. It is the question a single-route page cannot answer about itself and an atlas can.

Which months this runs

Season not heldwe can say when we looked, not which months run

Our records for the Arki–Leros crossing were read on 11 August 2026 and describe the network as it ran that week. We hold no month-by-month variation, so this page cannot tell you whether a crossing runs in February.

If you are travelling well outside August 2026, confirm with the operator before you plan around it.

What we do not know

No fares. The choice between Dodekanisos Seaways at 1 h 10 and SAOS Ferries at 2 h 40 is mostly a price decision, and we hold no prices for either.

No departure times. No rate is held for this pair either, so we cannot say how often it runs.
