Excellent - thank you so much for the info.   Would save driving and allow for a small sherry !   We usually spend a couple of days there but I think this would be a nice way to do the trip.  Replies much appreciated - ta !

Fiona,  Looking at the timetable, the schedule doesn't allow a day trip to Agia Galini. It sets off from Agia Galini for Plakias at 8.00am and sets off back again at 1830.  But maybe you have an overnight stay planned.

We are hoping to get a day trip to Gavdos when we are in Plakias at the end of August, now there is this very welcome service.

Plakias / Re: Slow painful death

We are regulars to Plakias since 25 years and this forum has been the source of many really useful information, enlighting  discussions and fun. Thanks for that! On the other hand it seems as if the spreading of the stories of the unique beauty of the place made it so popular, that some of its most precious facettes are already gone or in danger to be lost by the masses of us people to come here. We are still in love with Plakias but sometimes it might  be better not to shout it out to loud. ;-)

Plakias / Re: Souda beach no longer naturist

I don‘t remember Souda as clothing optional. Is Microamoudi also lost for the Naturists?

Forgot to mention you can buy tickets from Anso Travel in the town, note that the boat is big but does not take cars !
Also note that Plakias Boat Tours do private and fishing trips to some private beaches only accessible by boat, we can drop you off and you can swim snorkel and sunbath in complete privacy ! I might even be the Captain ! Details from Tasomanolis Taverna.

Yes there is indeed a regular boat crossing from the new harbour at Plakias to Gavdos it leaves at 10am on a Friday and Sunday Morning and gets back about 7pm so you could do a day trip or even stop over for a couple of nights, its quite a big boat and I think the tickets are 18 euros per person.

More information on the ferry website, https://anendyk.gr/?page_id=97#4
It appears to be listed as a day cruise, Not certain if its a full service, but its a good start

Noticed this (see extract below) on the Sfakia forum about a new ferry route calling into Plakias and wondered if anyone had seen or got any news about it?


"It will make the connection Agia Galini - Plakias - Gavdos. ANENDYK also has a new ticket booth at the Agia Galini harbour. From the 18th of June it will start:

From 1st of June it already is serving the Plakias - Gavdos route"
