In summer the quay at Gavrio fills with cars, motorhomes and freight trailers waiting to roll onto the next ferry to the mainland. As the main port of the Cycladic island of Andros, it functions chiefly as a RoRo ferry terminal, linked to Rafina near Athens in roughly one to two hours by conventional and high-speed vessels. The island's supplies — food, fuel and building materials — arrive almost entirely as accompanied or drop-trailer loads rather than in containers. No deep-sea cargo handling or container terminal exists here, and goods move within Greece's domestic EU customs area. Shippers needing containerised freight or international customs clearance route through Piraeus, with Rafina serving as the mainland ferry counterpart.
