The primary Greek ports handling the bulk of ferries in Greece are Athens, Thessaloniki and Alexandroupolis. Ferries to Greece are like sailing hotels, so they have sleeping cabins, nice open decks, duty-free shops, bars and restaurants.

The larger ferries can also transport both people, cars and even RV’s. In fact, some Greece ferries have what they call 'camping on board', which means you can sleep in your camper and use the power hookups, as well as showers and bathrooms on the ship.

The Port of Piraeus, is the largest Greek seaport. Port of Piraeus is the port of Athens, the capital of Greece.

As well as the others above you have Patra, Volos and Igoumenitsa. Although the last one has many routes to Southern and Northern Italy too.
