Star Legend Arrives at Souda Port, Crete

Wednesday, 22 April 2026/SourceFlashnews/1 min read
The cruise ship Star Legend has arrived at Souda Port, the main maritime gateway serving the city of Chania in western Crete. Souda Bay is one of the largest natural harbors in the Mediterranean and serves as the primary port for cruise vessels visiting the Chania region. Passengers disembarking at Souda are approximately 7 kilometers from Chania's historic Old Town, with taxi and bus connections readily available at the port. Chania offers visitors a well-preserved Venetian harbor, a vibrant covered market, numerous museums, and easy access to beaches along the Akrotiri peninsula and beyond. Cruise visitors typically have several hours ashore, making the Old Town, the lighthouse area, and the local food scene the most practical priorities for a short stay.
