Even though freighters and tankers often sail by its coasts, the island has only an infrequent ferry connection with Crete, often delayed or canceled because of bad weather.
Sekalipun kapal barang dan kapal tanker besar sering melewati pesisirnya, pulau itu hanya disinggahi oleh kapal feri dari Kreta, yang adakalanya tertunda atau batal akibat cuaca buruk.
