Guest Lurk Posted May 24, 2002 Share Posted May 24, 2002 Andy, there is a direct boat that goes from Lavrio (1 hour from athens) to samotharaki, it takes 10 hours. But, the problem is it only goes once a week, the timetables aren't published til june 10th. Last year it was on a Friday night, so that would mean getting to samothraki 5 days before the festival starts; which isn't a bad idea if you have time =o) Also, you can fly to athens and get a connecting flight from athens to alexandroupoli, boats go from there to samothraki 2 or 3 times a day.
