Ferry travel between islands is so easy. Relatively cheap, and always room for a passenger. Loading your car could pose a problem, and may require a reservation, so don't leave that to chance.

Before we began our trip, we worried about reserving space, but now realize booking a ferry for individual travel is not required.

When we left Paros by ferry for Athens, we sat on deck, exposed to wind and salty spray. I do not recommend that arrangement, as our clothing was stiff with salt, and my hair stood straight in the air when we arrived at the dock. I can't think of a time I felt grubbier.

Personal opinion, fly whenever possible. I hated the ferry. Will use again, but only under protest. The food is terrible, and extremely expensive, and washrooms 'stink'.
