Ferries Piraeus Santorini Mykonos Leros and Samos

It looks like a dream a ferry connection of Leros with the islands of Santorini and Mykonos from Piraeus. The island will burst of backpacking tourists like the good old days back in the 70’s when the M/V MIMIKA use to come to Lakki from Mykonos with hundreds of backpackers and rooms studios and hotels use to see the first tourism coming to Leros from the begining of April and not as today that we have the first tourists by the end of June (exept the usual KAPI groups of SKYBI) . Unfortunatelly the tourist season is too short for Leros, too many hotels and accomodation for a hanful of tourists unlike the huge tourist industry of Mykonos, Santorini, Samos, Rhodes or Kos with millions of websites advertising hotels in Mykonos or Rhodes accommodation, apartments in Paros or Imerovigli hotels. One of the main reasons is the Ferry connections and the airport of course. If the money that have been spend on useless financial projects (not to mention them here, all Leros knows about them) have been spend wiselly on investing probably with the cooperation of Kalymnos and Lipsi and variuous investors from the Dodecanese in effort to buy a Ferry and create an indipendent Ferry company, things good have been better not only for Leros but for the islands of Kalymnos and Lipsi as well. What we need is ferries, Santorini ferries , Mykonos ferries and Paros Ferries. Well bluestar ferries have connection with Paros and Syros but still the route is not ideal for island hopping. As about Agoudimos ferries that’s another story. The other main subject is the development of a largest airport but this is something very difficult due to the tourist competition of some well known islands of the Dodecanese and hard to say but is mostly a political problem. If a Greek ministry deside to extend the airport that is all. But go figer out who is going to do that.
