Piraeus port and how to find your ferry gate

Piraeus has twelve numbered gates (E1–E12) spread over a perimeter that takes about an hour to walk end to end, so the gate matters more than the port. Broadly: E8 for conventional Saronic boats (Aegina, Poros, Hydra, Spetses), E9 for the Aero Highspeed Saronic services, E1 for the Dodecanese, E2 and E3 for Crete and the north Aegean, E6/E7 and E9/E10 for the Cyclades — but gates change with traffic, so confirm on the day. A free shuttle bus circles the port from near gate E5, and Piraeus metro station (Lines 1 and 3) is at the main entrance.
