The Ios harbour office (Limenarchio, Port Police and Coast Guard), on the Gialos waterfront a few steps from the yacht quay.

Practical

Position is the OSM building tagged 'Port Police; Ios Coast Guard; Harbour Office'. Phone +30 22860 91264 (the Municipality of Ios and Visit Ios both list this number for the Port Authority). Call on VHF 12 before entering. Expect to show the boat's papers, crew list, insurance and the TEPAI cruising-tax e-receipt if asked; Greek-wide entry and TEPAI rules are in the area file. No source checked here confirms Ios as a non-EU port of entry, so clear into Greece at an official entry port first. Police station (Chora) +30 22860 91222.
