The Ministry for the Aegean (Greek: Υπουργείο Αιγαίου) was a government department of Greece.
It was founded in 1985 (Law 1558/1985), with Mytilene as its seat, and tasked with supervising the development of the long-neglected Aegean Islands.
In 2007 it was merged with the Ministry for Mercantile Marine to form the Ministry for Mercantile Marine, the Aegean and Island Policy.
The new ministry retained a Deputy Minister with seat at Mytilene.
In September 2010, the General Secretariat was absorbed by the Ministry for Maritime Affairs, Islands and Fisheries.
