Andros, Greece
 

Not exactly. But I've had not luck finding detail about how best to travel from Amorgos to Andros. Would love any intel from Greek-smart souls!

Thank you!

That would involve at least two ferries, possibly three. I'm assuming you mean travel during the summer. One route would be Amorgos > Mykonos, then Mykonos > Andros, using a Sea Jets catamaran for the first leg. The Sea Jet will arrive at the old port, while ferries to Andros use the new port at Tourlos. You may have to spend a night on Mykonos.

Another would be Amorgos > Paros by Blue Star, Paros > Mykonos by Sea Jets, then Mykonos > Andros by one of the conventional ferries. That would be tricky, as you would have only a half-hour between arrival of Blue Star at Paros and departure of the Sea Jet, but if it all worked out you could do it in one day. The ferries arrive on the same Paros quay, so if you had a Sea Jets ticket you could jump off one ferry and onto the other.

Without knowing the exact date of travel it's impossible to determine what will work best for you. What you can do is play around with www.gtp.gr using various island combinations. Amorgos is on the Central Cyclades route, which includes Naxos and Paros. Andros is on the Rafina > Mykonos route, which also includes Tinos. Best thing, IMO, would be to plan a night on Mykonos en route so you don't have to worry about tight connections.

Very helpful–thank you. Yes, it would be in summer. And, yes, I'm potentially trying to see too much.

Thanks again :)

It's not a matter of seeing too much, but the fact that these two islands are awkward to get between in one go. With a stopover on Mykonos between the two it would be much easier. I suspect you plan to visit other islands as well, so you need to plan an itinerary that takes advantage of the ferry routes and gives you at least 2 or 3 nights per island.

An excellent guidebook to learn the ferry routes is <i>Greek Island Hopping</i>. The timetables are a year behind, but it has great maps of the routes and gives you a good idea of what is possible and what is not. :-)

Fair enough. I just fell in love with a place on Andros and really wanted to go there. Will consider Mykonos, and will check out the guide you recommend.

Thanks again!

Fantastic book suggestion–it's a goldmine of intel! Thanks again.
