The Port of Naples is one of the most important and historic ports in the Mediterranean. At the heart of this vibrant port lies the Naples Cruise Terminal, also known as the Stazione Marittima di Napoli. Located just a short walk from the historic city center, the terminal serves as a major gateway for cruise ships and ferries arriving from across Europe and beyond.
The Maritime Station is a large, multifunctional complex that combines port operations with commercial and tourism services. It was originally built in the 1930s and is an example of rationalist architecture. Over the years, it has been modernized to meet the needs of contemporary travelers while preserving its historical charm.
Today, the terminal handles millions of passengers each year and offers a wide range of amenities, including shopping areas, restaurants, ticket offices, and customs services. It is a strategic hub.
Its central location makes it especially convenient for tourists, who can easily access Naples’ main attractions like Piazza del Plebiscito, the Royal Palace, and the famous Spaccanapoli street. The terminal plays a vital role in the city’s economy and continues to grow as one of Southern Italy’s most important transport and tourism centers.
Terminal Napoli offers a 360° service for both cruise lines and passengers, taking care of:
The port features 7 docking piers, capable of accommodating the largest cruise ships, with a total length of 1,100 meters and a maximum depth of 12 meters.
To meet the growing needs of cruise operators and enhance the passenger experience, Terminal Napoli has carried out major infrastructure upgrades, transforming the area into a true multifunctional hub.
These developments have gradually turned the Port of Naples into more than just a transit point—it is now a complete experience that combines efficiency, hospitality, and high-quality services. Moreover, Terminal Napoli is committed to promoting the city as a top-tier tourist destination, offering every visitor a taste of Naples’ uniqueness—blending tradition, modernity, and innovation.
