Port of Civitavecchia, also known as "Port of Rome",[2][3] or Civitavecchia Port of Rome,[4] is the seaport of Civitavecchia, Metropolitan City of Rome, Italy. It is an important hub for the maritime transport in Italy, for goods and passengers. The Rome Cruise Terminal is part of the port.[5][6] Part of the "Motorways of the Sea",[7] it is linked to several Mediterranean ports and represents one of the main links between the Italian mainland and Sardinia.
The port of Civitavecchia, with approximately 3.33 million passengers per year, is the first Italian port for cruise traffic, the second in Europe after the port of Barcelona and among the busiest in the world.[8]
