Getting here

Ferry and airport

Ferry from Piraeus

The port fund says Syros is connected daily with Piraeus by at least two ferry routes, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. The port also connects to the rest of the Cyclades and the Dodecanese.

Syros airport

Syros Airport (LGSO, JSY) is a state airport run by the Hellenic Civil Aviation Authority. The runway is 1,080 m and the airport is a visual flight rules and non-precision facility (GreekAirports.gr). It is about 2 km south of the port authority building, measured in a straight line.

Entry

The UK government says Greece is in the Schengen area. The European Commission publishes a short-stay calculator for the 90/180-day rule. Check the rules for your passport.
