Summer Travel Across the Dodecanese (Rhodes-Kos-Patmos) & Samos by Ferry

Hello,

Are the summer ferry services across the Dodecanese often disrupted by the infamous Meltemi (wind) that plagues the Cyclades in July and August as well?

When can I find accruate and up-to-date schedules on ferry services across the Dodecanese (Rhodes-Kos-Patmos) & Samos?

Thanks

I have used Ferries.gr, not sure how accurate they are out some time frame, but they will get you close and show you connections between Islands. As for the wind, you never know. In a couple weeks during a September, there were maybe two days we would not have been able to travel. Shaky ferry schedules and weather interuptions are one reason I do the islands with few reservations.

Is Meltemi only the problem in the Cyclades?
