FERRIES FROM PIREAUS AND OTHER ISLANDS TO THE ISLAND OF KOUFONISSI OR KOUFONISSIA IN GREECE

There is no airport on the island of Koufonissia and so you can only get there by ferry. Roughly said there is a ferry each day going somewhere (direction Amorgos or Naxos - Piraeus). Some of the ferries arrive at Koufonissia at a late time in which case it is wise to make reservations on the island so you will be picked up in the port. You can check Blue Star Ferries and Nel Lines for their schedules. There are also daytrips from the neighbouring island of Naxos.
