Anek Lines All ferry connections between Italy and Greece
Anek Lines is a Greek shipping company, founded in 1967 in Chania, on the island of Crete, with the help of small Cretan shareholders driven by the need to improve connections between Crete and the mainland.
In 1970 it began its first passenger ferry service connecting the ports of Piraeus and Chania, later the fleet was enriched with larger and larger ferries and new connections to Italy would be established as well.
After a long and steady growth, in the late 1990s Anek Lines became one of the leading Greek companies on the Aegean and Adriatic Sea routes.
If you are departing from Italy, choose from the ports of Ancona, Venice or Bari. Daily departures are available to Igoumenitsa and Patras, with a stopover in Corfu during the high season.
If you depart from Greece, you can travel between the Aegean islands aboard Anek Lines, with connections between the main islands and between Crete and Piraeus.
