Aegina Port
The main port is situated in Aegina Town, the capital town of the island. Its distance from the port of Piraeus in Athens is 18 nautical miles (21 miles or 33 km).
It is the only one that receives ferries throughout the year, in contrast to the others, which are only connected to Piraeus during the high season. Moreover, it connects the island with the verdant Agistri, the quaint Poros, and the enchanting town of Methana (Peloponnese).
The port authority's offices are housed in a building on the promenade.
Facilities
The port may host several types of vessels (ferries, sailboats, yachts, etc.) but it is small and does not have many facilities. Nonetheless, all kinds of establishments are found in its vicinity, including hotels, shops, restaurants, and cafes.
Souvala Port
The port of Souvala is located on the north side of the island, at a distance of 8 km from Aegina Town. It is the most beautiful part of the region thanks to its picturesque setting.
Some benches are placed along the harbor where you can sit and enjoy the beautiful sunset. Additionally, there are many taverns, cafes, and bars close to the sea.
Souvala is the second busiest port on the island. It is connected by ferry to Piraeus, but only during the summer months.
Agia Marina Port
The port of Agia Marina is located on the eastern side of the island, around 13 km away from Aegina Town. Agia Marina is the number-one tourist resort on the island, with several eating and drinking establishments and various shops located within the village.
Similar to Souvala, Agia Marina is connected by ferry to Piraeus, but only during summer.
Perdika Port
The port of Perdika is located on the southwestern side of the island, around 10 km away from the capital. It is not reminiscent of a port, but rather a marina.
It does not receive any passenger ferries at the moment, yet smaller vessels like boats, yachts, and sailboats can moor there.
