The Piraeus (Athens)–Santorini crossing

The Piraeus–Santorini crossing is the classic Aegean journey, from the port of Athens straight to the caldera of Santorini. In summer, high-speed catamarans make the run in around five hours, with slower conventional ferries also serving the route. It's the single most-booked island crossing in Greece, so seats and vehicle space go early in July and August.
