Ferry from Cyclades Islands to Lesbos

About Cyclades Islands

The Cyclades Islands are a Greek archipelago in the Aegean Sea, southeast of the mainland. Whether you’re looking for an action-packed adventure, romantic retreat, or blissful getaway, the Cyclades have it all. Also, not only are they stunningly beautiful, they deliver on the cultural front too, boasting flourishing food scenes and a rich history. You’re never short of fascinating things to see either. Delos is the legendary birthplace of Greek deities Apollo and Artemis and claims many archaeological sites while the world-renowned beaches of Mykonos are the perfect places to unwind after a day of adventure. When it comes to exploring Greece and her islands, travelling by ferry is a quick and convenient way to get around. From the Cyclades, there is a vast network of ferry routes available to the surrounding Greek islands and the mainland, as well as numerous crossings between the Cyclades group itself.

About Lesbos

As the third largest island in Greece, Lesbos covers an area of over sixteen hundred square kilometres in the north-eastern Aegean Sea. You won’t come across many tourist resorts on Lesbos, but what you will find are roughly eleven million olive trees, copious sandy beaches, lively port towns and an authentic Greek lifestyle. Add to that list a petrified forest, fossilized around twenty million years ago, and you have one of the country’s most extraordinary islands. Commonly sighted are almost three hundred bird species, which are best admired along one of the many hiking trails and cycling routes, or when relaxing in therapeutic hot springs, flowing with some of the warmest mineral waters on the continent. Greece has one of the largest ferry networks in Europe, owing to the sheer quantity of islands and archipelagos. Lesbos is served by many routes from around the Aegean, including a few cities on the mainland and the surrounding islands.
