The luxury cruise ship Silver Nova will make nine scheduled port calls at Heraklion, Crete's main port, running through November 2026. Operated by Silversea Cruises, Silver Nova is one of the line's newest ultra-luxury vessels, bringing high-end international travelers directly to the island on a regular seasonal schedule. For visitors already in Crete, cruise days at Heraklion port typically increase foot traffic in the city center, particularly around the old harbor, the Koules Fortress, and the Heraklion Archaeological Museum.
