Kos is one of the most accessible islands in Greece. Almost all major package-holiday operators from Europe arrange trips to Kos, the domestic aviation is well-developed and the boat connections are among the best you can imagine. So whether you travel organized or independently, it's never far to Kos.

BY CHARTER FLIGHTS

As said, you can go on a package holiday from most counties in Europe. The plane come down on Kos, so you do not have to go by boat. Kos Town, Lambi, Psalidi, Kardamena, Tigaki, Marmari and Kefalos are popular package resorts.

BY FERRY

Kos has very good boat connections with most islands in the Dodecanese. There are also boat connections with Piraeus, Samos, Santorini and Syros. Like many other islands in this part of the archipelago, the boat traffic is dominated by hydrofoils, catamarans and high-speed boats, they are twice as fast, and twice as expensive as ordinary ferries. Luckily there are also ordinary ferries operating Kos, including Blue Star Ferries.
