Igoumenitsa Port Information
Igoumenitsa, with its imposing mountains in the background, is not only a scenic location, but also the largest and most important port in western Greece. It is a central hub for international and national ferry connections and handles around 1.5 million passengers a year.
The port is divided into two main areas: the central quay and the northern quay. The central quay on the south coast of the city specializes in international ferry connections. Ferries to Italian ports such as Ancona, Venice, Bari and Brindisi depart from here. This pier is easy to reach both on foot and by car, as it is connected to the Egnatia Odos highway and is close to the entrance gates and the passenger terminal.
The northern jetty is for the national ferry lines and is located near the city center of Igoumenitsa. From here, the main ferry services are to the Ionian Islands, Corfu and Paxos. With stores, banks and restaurants nearby, it is a lively place that is easily accessible via Apostolon Avenue.
Igoumenitsa is an important ferry port to Italy with regular departures throughout the year. Depending on the destination, the crossing takes between 7 and 24 hours, with most crossings taking place overnight.
For travelers wishing to discover the beauty of the Ionian Islands, Igoumenitsa offers regular crossings to Corfu and Paxos, with the crossing to Corfu taking only 1.5 hours. During the summer months, it is also possible to call at the port of Sami on Kefalonia.
