If you are planning to go to Andros island after spending time in Paros, you'll find there are around 9 ferries per week during the tourists season.

The daily ferry operated by Golden Star Ferries leaves from Paros every day at 07.30 and arrives in Andros at 12.15. This makes the travel time 4 hours and 45 minutes.

The vessel sailing to the Greek island of Andros on this crossing from Paros is the SuperFerry II, which is also capable of carrying cars.

You could expect two ferries per week according to demand on their vessel the Fast Ferries Andros.

Ticket prices for passengers start at around 24.00 Euros for Paros ferries from Andros. This makes it a cheaper option when available.

Paros Andros Cyclades Islands Travel Tips

Here's some specific travel tips for taking a ferry from Paros and then visiting Andros:

  • Ferries depart from the main port, Parikia in Paros. Due to traffic problems in Paros, I'd suggest aiming to be at the port an hour before departure to be on the safe side. Ferries arrive at Gavrio port in Andros.

  • ** Travel Guide to Andros and Tinos now available on Amazon! **

  • For places to stay in Andros, take a look at my guide to hotels in Andros. Areas to consider staying include Agios Petros, Korthi, Batsi, and Chora. If you are traveling to Andros in the the busiest months of summer, I advise reserving rooms to rent in Andros a couple of months or so in advance.

  • I recommend visiting the following beaches in Andros: Fellos, Korthi, Chrissi Ammos, Achla, Vlychada, Zorkos, and Grias to Pidima. Read this guide to see how to reach them: How to get around Andros

  • Ferryhopper is perhaps the easiest site to use when it comes to booking Ferry tickets online for the Paros ferry to Andros. Tickets for this ferry route rarely sell out, but try to get them a couple of months in advance if you can.
