Piraeus, the port of Athens, is occupying a peninsula 10 kilometers southwest of central Athens.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p> Piraeus is the hub of the Greek ferry network. Frequent ship departures take travelers to the Greek islands. All ferries depart from the main harbor.<\/span><\/p> On the north side of Piraeus is the main harbor \u2013 one of the largest in the Mediterranean \u2013 serving cargo and passenger ships from around the world, while the south side with two smaller harbors serves as the entertainment district. The Zea harbor is occupied by a yacht marina and has many restaurants and cafes as well as two beaches a short walk away. Adjacent to Zea lies the fishing port Mikrolimano, which is the smallest and most picturesque of Piraeus\u2019 three harbors. It is dotted with traditional seafood eateries and stylish restaurants.<\/span><\/p> There are two museums in Piraeus. The Nautical Museum<\/a> at the Zea Harbor and the Archeological Museum<\/a>.
