In reply to UKC News:
Here's how it works from now until 10th November (according to the adverts)
Boat leaves for Telendos harbour for Irox at 9:10, 10:10 and 11:10
Returns at 17:00, 18:00 and 19:00
3 euros one-way, 6 return. Obviously best to let the ferryman know what time you are likely to want to return, so as to save him a wasted journey
I think that someone else may be providing a direct service form Myrties, but only if you can get a boatload.
Have to say I like the new system - much better if you have a small group. It cost us much more last time as we had to split the cost between 4 of us. And it's a regular service, so you can decide on the morning if that's where you want to go.
Futhermore, I would strongly advise anyone going to Irox to make sure you spend some time (and money) on Telendos. Great hospitality. I actually quite object to the notion of going direct to and from Myrties !
Oh, and Magma at Irox is well worth the cost of the trip. And On the Rocks is great - much fun on the pedalo !
Maybe UKC should consider re-wording the original article with more information and a little less hyperbole....
