Its Greek island boats leave from Bodrum (Cruise Port and Castle Port) and from Turgutreis. The company’s about page speaks of five passenger ships, while its fleet page names six: B.

Routes

Route Note Guide
Bodrum → Kos The company’s main Greek line. Its ticket system offers Kos from both Bodrum Cruise Port and Bodrum Castle Port and advertises the crossing as 20 minutes; feribotseferleri gives about 45 minutes. The timetable is embedded as a spreadsheet that we could not read, so check sailing times on the company’s site. Bodrum → Kos
Turgutreis → Kos Listed on the company’s site and ticket system; about 30 minutes according to feribotseferleri. Booking platforms show April–November on this route. Turgutreis → Kos
Turgutreis → Leros To Agia Marina, listed on the company’s site and ticket system; about 45 minutes according to feribotseferleri, which reported the Turgutreis island lines as new for summer 2026. –
Turgutreis → Kalymnos To Pothia, about 1 hour according to feribotseferleri. The company names Kalymnos among its destinations and lists it in its ticket system, but we could not confirm a 2026 timetable. Turgutreis → Kalymnos
Turgutreis → Patmos The company’s site has a Turgutreis–Patmos schedule page, but no sailings were readable and Patmos did not appear in its ticket system in October 2026. Not confirmed. –

Departure ports: Bodrum, Turgutreis.

How to book

Book online at bodrumferibot.com or ticket.bodrumferibot.com, or by phone (+90 252 316 08 82). The ticket site says check-in closes 15 minutes before departure and asks you to be at the port at least an hour early; feribotseferleri says 1.5 hours – allow the longer time for passport control. Fares and timetables are embedded spreadsheets we could not read, so check the price on the site. The site’s text also names Rhodes, Symi and Chios among Bodrum destinations, but in October 2026 the ticket system only offered Kos, Kalymnos, Leros (Agia Marina) and Datça. See our Bodrum to Kos ferry guide.

Vehicles

Unclear for the Greek routes – sources conflict. Feribotseferleri says only the domestic Bodrum–Datça line takes vehicles and the island routes are passenger-only, and Ferryhopper and Ferryscanner list Bodrum–Kos as foot passengers only. Bodrum Feribot’s own ticket form shows an empty vehicle field. Direct Ferries, however, describes a ‘Bodrum Express’ fleet whose Hızır Reis carries up to 8 vehicles. Ask the company before planning to take a car.
