Freedom Passenger Ferries (Hydra Lines) Hydra Island - Metochi Connection

Current Spring Timetable - Updated 24 March 2023

Hydra ➩ Metochi

Timetable for Hydra to Metochi Freedom Ferry

Μετόχι ➩ Ύδρα

Timetable from Metochi to Hydra with Freedom passenger ferry.

Operating: ALL YEAR

(Only ever cancelled if the weather is too bad)

 

TICKET PRICE: €7.50 per person (€14.00 return). 


JUST TURN UP 15 mins before, YOU  CAN'T PRE-BOOK.


Please note that because the Greek Ministry of Transport doesn't approve routes and timetables until very close to the changes, you need to check back about a week before you want to travel around the change of seasons. But be assured that at any time of the year the Freedom Ferry services the route between Metochi & Hydra with at least two trips each way every day except the 25th December.


Arrivals and departures from Hydra are on the quayside opposite the Cool Mule and Stin Yamas Cafe on the East side of the harbour near to where the Hellenic Dolphins/Cats tie up.

 

There is a ticket kiosk on the Metochi side, where you can get information and help. The ticket office is open during daylight hours.

 

NO BICYCLES are allowed on Hydra. Cycling on the island is banned. If you are cycling on the mainland, you will have to park your bike in the secure car park before you travel over on Freedom (or a sea taxi) while you are on Hydra. There is no where on Hydra to leave your bike if you bring it and you will encounter some hostility from some islanders if you try to!


Luggage: Normal amounts of luggage, ie a suitcase and piece of hand luggage per person, is included in the price of the ticket price. Excess luggage needs to be agreed at the point of sailing (so arrive early to discuss).


Pets: Are allowed to travel so long as they are secured in a box or on a lead.


During the off-season months, phone the day before to double-check that the weather isn't likely to disrupt your travel.
