Unlike the container hubs of mainland Greece, the port of Chios (Khios) is first and foremost a ferry and passenger gateway on the island's east coast, facing the Turkish shore. It combines an outer anchorage with an artificial harbour and can berth around two passenger or cargo vessels of up to 20,000 tonnes, alongside smaller general-cargo ships. Large-scale containerised handling is not part of its profile; most freight, vehicles and supplies arrive by RoRo ferry from Piraeus, some 152 nautical miles away. Hinterland reach is limited to the island's road network. Shippers with boxed or bulk cargo typically consolidate through Piraeus and use the ferry link for the final leg to the island.
