The Piraeus to Paros crossing is one of the busiest gateways into the Cyclades, with SEAJETS high-speed catamarans reaching the island in about 2 h 40 and Blue Star Ferries conventional ships making the run in roughly 4 hours. In peak summer you can choose from several sailings a day, from early-morning departures to late-afternoon runs, so it is easy to fit Paros into an island-hopping itinerary on to Naxos, Mykonos or Santorini. Both operators carry cars and motorbikes, and Blue Star Ferries adds the comfort of full cabins and pet-friendly options for longer or overnight-style journeys.
