  • Ionian Star

ionianstar

The F/B Ionian Star was built in Japan, at the Jyuko Kochi shipyard, and after having sailed for about 10 years at the far seas of Japan, it finally came to Zakynthos. Before that, it was significantly retrofitted in Korea and in Greece, resulting in a transformation of an ‘ugly duck’ into a ‘swan’.

Today, the ship makes an impression thanks to its spacious rooms and its capacity, while perfectly satisfying the transport needs of the route, in terms of both passengers and cargo traffic!

  • Dionisios SolomosDionisios_Solomos

Dionisios Solomos is a ship that deservedly bears the National Poet of Greece’s name due to the latter’s origin from Zakynthos. The ship was built in 1990 in Japan and its first name was ROYAL KAWANOE. That name was maintained until 1999 when, after a light retrofitting, the ship finally came to its new home, Zakynthos.

With a speed reaching 19,5 knots, Dionisios Solomos offers transport services of high quality aiming to contribute to the Ionian Islands growth, for their people and their visitors sake.
