Route guide

Kyllini to Poros, Kefalonia ferry

Kyllini–Poros, Kefalonia is part of the current Ionian ferry network. Levante Ferries’ current summer timetable connects Kyllini directly with Poros on Kefalonia; this route uses Poros, not Argostoli, as the island port. Current 2026 information supports four departures in each direction daily in the published 24 July to 2 September 2026 timetable. Recheck the dated timetable before travel because these services can change materially between peak summer and the shoulder season.

Levante Ferries provides the operator coverage used for this guide. The service is designed for foot passengers and booked vehicles, but the exact passenger spaces, food service, accessibility arrangements and pet facilities depend on the assigned vessel. Compare those details before paying.

At Poros, Kefalonia, the ferry arrives at Poros Ferry Port, Kefalonia. Poros is on Kefalonia’s south-east coast. The ferry harbour sits beside the town and provides road access toward Skala, Sami, Argostoli and the rest of the island. If you are connecting onward, allow a realistic buffer: small Ionian ports can be efficient, but separate ferry tickets do not guarantee a protected connection when weather or timetable changes intervene.

Even on Kyllini to Poros, Kefalonia, fares and vessel assignments can vary by departure, so compare the live options rather than relying only on a typical journey time.

For Kyllini to Poros, Kefalonia, the advertised crossing time is only one part of the journey. Allow for port access, check-in, boarding and disembarkation when deciding which departure best fits the day.

Passengers, vehicles and the fare

Select the correct passenger category before comparing Kyllini to Poros, Kefalonia fares.
