Kavala Cruise Port & Apostolos Pavlos Guide

Kavala's Apostolos Pavlos passenger port meets the waterfront below the Panagia peninsula, with the Old Town close by and Philippi requiring a separate inland plan.

ARRIVE WITH CONTEXT

The port is only the beginning.

Bon Voyage connects the arrival point to the city, region and experiences it actually unlocks. That means understanding the port first—then deciding how far the day should reach.

ARRIVAL STORY · A PASSENGER PORT INSIDE THE CITY

Kavala begins where a working harbor, waterfront city and fortified peninsula meet.

Kavala Port Authority records an August 2025 cruise call at the central Apostolos Pavlos port and continuing work with international operators. MedCruise identifies a passenger terminal, cruise-capable quays, anchorage and city-center location. That verifies an active gateway without making one berth, tender, terminal route or exit universal. Confirm the assigned arrival, passenger path, accessibility, transport, meeting point and final return before walking Panagia or committing to Philippi, Lydia, Amphipolis, Nestos or Thassos.
