Dostęp
Gavdos is only accessible by ferry from the island of Crete from the small harbours of Paleochora and Chora Sfakion. The ferry company is called Anendyk (see the link below). Mostly the small car ferry departs 3 days a week from Paleochora (e.g.Monday to Wednesday) and 3 days from Chora Sfakion (e.g. Thursday to Saturday). Always check the departure times on the website as there are constant changes.
The island is 25 Km2 with quit good roads. Best to travel by car. In the low season, buses only run the route between Karave (harbor) - Sarakiniko and Agios Ioannis. During the summer months, all villages on the island are served daily. There are good possibilities to hike on the island as there are many paths and roads you can explore on foot. On the map you see some options for walking.
