The port of Korissia, located in a sheltered bay on the island's west coast, serves as the sole maritime gateway to Kea-Tzia. It exclusively handles passenger and vehicle ferries making the short, one-hour journey from the mainland port of Lavrio, making it a favorite for Athenian getaways. As the main arrival point, Korissia provides immediate access to the island's amenities and is the starting point for exploring the hilltop capital, Ioulida, and the island's secluded beaches.

Getting to and from Kea-Tzia Port

By Taxi

The taxi rank is located in the main port of Korissia. Kea has a very small number of licensed taxis, so it can be difficult to find one upon arrival, especially on weekends.

A pre-booked transfer with Aegean Taxi is the only way to guarantee a vehicle is waiting for you.

Your driver will meet you as you disembark for a comfortable ride to the hilltop capital of Ioulida, the yachting harbor of Vourkari, or your villa.

By Bus

The public bus is the most economical option, with a stop at the port of Korissia. The service connects the port with the main capital, Ioulida, and a few of the most popular beaches.

Schedules are limited and vary by season, so it is essential to check the timetable in advance to plan your journey.

Information on routes and times is typically posted at the main bus stops.

By Car

To fully explore Kea's many secluded beaches and its network of hiking trails, renting a car or scooter is highly recommended. Several rental agencies are conveniently located in the port village of Korissia.

A vehicle gives you the freedom to discover the island at your own pace, especially the beautiful coves that are only accessible via unpaved roads.

Due to the limited number of vehicles on the island, booking in advance is essential.

By Sea Taxi

For a unique and fast way to reach Kea's most remote and beautiful beaches, you can hire a local sea taxi. These are small, powerful boats that operate like a private taxi on the water.

They typically depart from the port of Korissia or Vourkari and can take you to stunning coves that are very difficult or impossible to reach by car.

You can usually find contact information for sea taxi services posted along the waterfront at the port.
