Sitting alone in the crystalline waters of the Aegean Sea, equidistant from the coasts of Crete and the Peloponnese region of Greece, is the small island of Antikythira. This rugged kite-shaped outcrop of land is sparsely populated and almost entirely covered in Mediterranean scrubland that rises over its steep hills and rocky cliffs that line the shore. Due to its prime location between Africa and Europe, Antikythira is a natural rest-stop for migratory birds travelling overseas. The island is also the world’s largest breeding ground of the elegant Eleonora's falcon and has become an important research outpost for those studying the species. The port of Antikythira is found to the north of the island. The passenger terminal here consists of a pier that sits at the base of a narrow inlet of the ocean, just along from a small, hill-top marina. A number of Lane Sea Lines services leave from the port throughout the week, heading to a variety of destinations. Three services sail towards the Greek mainland, stopping at the island of Kythira, the south-coast town of Gythion and the city of Piraeus further north. Another service travels in the opposite direction, following a route that spans the glittering Antikythira strait to the town of Kissamos on the north-western peninsula of Crete.
The port city of Piraeus can be found in the Attica region of Greece along the east coast of the Saronic Gulf about 12 km south west of Athens, the Greek capital. Piraeus is the largest ferry port in Europe and one of the largest in the world when it comes to passenger transportation with services provided by every major ferry company in Greece. Approximately 20 million passengers pass through its doors each year and the port provides the main link between the Greek mainland and the Aegean islands and Crete. Piraeus proves the gateway from the Greek mainland to all of the main holiday destinations in Greece and some of the less popular ones too. Piraeus is also famous for its football team – Olympiakos who regularly feature in the UEFA Champions League.
