Ferries between Lesbos and Ayvalik.
 
Hi!
​​​​​​I am planning to reserve a round trip ferry from Mytilini to Ayvalik. The return date would be 2 or 3 days after. Please, which company do you recommend for reservations (Turyol or Jalem tur)?

Do you like fast catamarans or slow ferries? Ther is furthermore a small price difference.

Fast catamaran of course !

My dates are:
21 August 2024 from Mytilini to Ayvalik in the afternoon.

23 August 2024 from Ayvalik , preferably at noon if there is availability.

Is it recommended to buy tickets from now?

Thank you.

You are way too early. Buy your ticket in August.

In the case you plan to proceed slowly from Astypalea via Kos - Leros - Samos - Chios to Mytilini, you might check the alternative via Turkey:
Samos (Pythagorio or Vathy) - Kusadasi- Izmir - Bergama - Ayvalik - Mytilini
resp. Chios- Cesme - Izmir - Bergama - Ayvalik - Mytilini

Excellent suggestions. Both options are a great combination of Greece and Turkey.
Thank you.
