How to get there
Andros is the northernmost island of the Cyclades and is located 37 nautical miles from Attica. The boat trip from the port of Rafina lasts two hours and there are 5 to 6 departures every day during the summer season (or 3-4 departures per day during the other seasons). The port of Andros is Gavrio (on the NW side of the island) and is about 30 km from Chora, which is located on the east side of the island (30-45 minutes by car). You can go to Chora either by comfortable tourist buses, taxi, privately leased vehicles or rental cars from the port. The route is magnificent, by the sea, through picturesque villages.

Getting around
Transport to the island is by ferry from Rafina. The island is too large to get around on foot, e.g. the port town is 30km away from Chora and the house. There is a public bus service connecting the port town of Gavrio to Mpatsi, Chora and Korthi. Taxis are available at all major towns. Car rental places can be found in Gavrio and Chora. Most towns and beaches are serviced by asphalt paved roads. A few more secluded beaches can be reached via dirt roads or boat. There is also an extensive network of footpaths covering most of the island; one of these connects the house to the nearby beach of Neimporio and the town of Chora. The house has private parking for a few cars.
