Athinios Port to Fira bus and onward transfers
The Municipal Port Fund confirms a city-bus departure point at Athinios, and KTEL lists a Fira–Athinios fare. The current timetable PDF checked here does not publish port departure times.
The direct answer
A public-bus departure point exists at Athinios ferry port, and KTEL lists the ordinary Fira–Athinios fare at €2.70. No current port departure times are published in the July PDF, so confirm the service when you arrive and do not rely on a guaranteed connection.

Plan the arrival without assuming a connection
Ferry arrival times and port traffic can vary. Build the plan around confirmation on arrival rather than an unsupported timetable.
- Follow current port signs and staff guidance to the public-bus departure point.
- Confirm the next Fira service and fare before boarding.
- At Fira, check the separate current departure for your final destination.
- Allow your own connection margin; the sources do not promise protected transfers.
Private transfer option
Need a direct ride?
For port arrivals, luggage, late journeys, or a direct ride to your accommodation that would otherwise require a change in Fira, you can check a pre-booked private transfer.

Prefer a pre-booked door-to-door transfer?
The public bus stays this guide’s recommendation — at the listed €2.70 ordinary fare it is the cheapest published way from Athinios up to Fira. A pre-booked transfer is worth checking for a late ferry, heavy luggage, or a ride straight to your accommodation door without the change in Fira.
