The Koufonisia Beach Boat & Rentals

The Boats | The two hop-on hop-off boat companies have kiosks at the ferry port in Chora (maps) where you can buy tickets and find timetables.

Services start at 9.30am, and run from the port to Finkas – Fanos – Italida – Pori, and then do it in reverse.

An all-day ticket costs €5 per person, and it includes as many rides as you want that day.

Mavros G. Boat has hourly departures from 9.30am – 7.30pm. The other company runs a more frequent timetable with departures every hour and half hour, but their boats always looked much busier and crowded, so choose what’s best for you.

We recommend taking a photo of the specific timetable before you set off.

If you are not based in Chora, then you can board and buy your ticket at the beach pick-up/drop-off points.

Bicycles | The most convenient place is Thoosa Boutique (maps), but they only have electric bikes for €20 per day. If you continue walking for a few minutes along the road in the direction of Finika Beach, you’ll find another company which charges the same for electric but also has normal bikes for €8-9 per 24 hours.

If you’re staying in Koufonisi for a few days, you may wish to rent but it isn’t essential for getting around, and you should note that some beaches on the southern coastal trail can’t be reached by bike.

However, if you’re visiting the island on a day trip from Naxos or Paros, then a bicycle may be a good option to see more. The following have excellent reviews:

Scooters | We don’t think you need a scooter here, but you can rent one for €30-35 per day from Moto Koufonisi (maps).
