Port of Piraeus

Piraeus (UN/LOCODE: GRPIR) stands as Greece's preeminent maritime gateway and largest commercial port, strategically positioned at 37.93°N, 23.62°E within Attica's Piraeus district under Europe/Athens timezone. This historically significant harbor serves as the primary gateway for passenger and cargo traffic connecting the Aegean Sea to global shipping networks, handling over 30 million tons of cargo annually with specialized container terminals, roll-on/roll-off facilities, and bulk cargo capabilities. As a cornerstone of Mediterranean shipping routes linking European markets to Asian Minor and the Eastern Mediterranean, Piraeus integrates seamlessly into the pan-European logistics infrastructure while maintaining its indispensable role in Greek economic development and international maritime commerce.
