Agistri is reached by sea. Most visitors arrive from Piraeus, the main port of Athens, either directly or via Aegina, landing at one of the island’s two ports: Skala or Megalochori, also listed as Myli in ferry timetables.

Ferries from Piraeus

Agistri has two relevant ports for travellers arriving from Piraeus: Skala, the more developed visitor port with the main beach and most restaurants close by, and Megalochori, also listed as Myli on ferry timetables, useful for travellers staying in the capital or arriving on services that call there specifically. Which port your ferry uses depends on the operator and route, so it’s worth checking your ticket rather than assuming.

Journey time varies by boat type. As a safe evergreen guide, expect the trip from Piraeus to take anywhere from under an hour on faster services to around an hour and a half on conventional ferries. Fixed timetables are not reproduced here because they change by season, weather and operator — always check a live schedule before booking.

Connecting via Aegina

Agistri sits close enough to Aegina that many travellers combine the two, either as a stopover on the way from Piraeus or as a deliberate island-hopping route. The Aegina–Agistri crossing is short, commonly around 15 to 25 minutes depending on the service, which makes a same-day combination realistic if you plan your return carefully.

Good to know

• Book ahead in July and August; smaller boats sell out on peak dates.
• Ferry schedules change by season — check current times with the operator or a booking platform shortly before you travel, not weeks in advance.
• If you’re staying in Megalochori, look for a service that calls there directly rather than routing through Skala.
• Keep your return crossing in mind when planning a day trip — the last boat back to Piraeus is earlier than many visitors expect, especially outside peak summer.
