Ferry Travel
As of May 14th, 2021, travel for holiday reasons is allowed in Greece, which means you can catch the ferry to one of the celebrated Greek islands! Prior to boarding, a health declaration questionnaire, provided via ferry operators, must be filled out by all travelers, while a negative Covid-19 test is required. Covid-19 testing is not required for ferry trips to mainland Greece from the islands, nor for island hopping, while children under the age of 5 are exempt from this requirement.

Proof of negative Covid-19 test could be any of the following:

• Vaccination certificate.
• Negative result of PCR test carried out up to 72 hours before departure.
• Negative result of Rapid Antigen test carried out up to 24 hours before departure.
• Negative result of a Covid-19 self-test carried out up to 24 hours before departure (the result is declared through the Greek state self-test result declaration platform, as well as on the pre-boarding form).
• Official confirmation of Covid-19 infection minimum 2 months and maximum 9 months before the departure date.

The use of face masks is mandatory both indoors and on the ferry decks and a minimum distance of 1.5m must be followed at all times. Lastly, no more than 2 passengers can stay in a single cabin unless they are family members or they accompany a person with disabilities.
