If you were to choose a central and popular Mediterranean port like Piraeus (Greece) or Genoa (Italy), here’s a list of countries it could efficiently serve:

1. Greece (directly local to Piraeus)

2. Italy (via Genoa or nearby ports)

3. Turkey (via connections from Piraeus)

4. Croatia (popular sailing destination in the Adriatic Sea)

5. Spain (via Mediterranean routes)

6. France (coastal regions like Marseille or Nice)

7. Malta (near central shipping lanes)

8. Cyprus (via connections from Piraeus or other ports)

9. Albania (close to Greek ports)

10. Montenegro (rising popularity for cruising sailors)

Ports like Piraeus or Genoa offer good access to both the Eastern and Western Mediterranean and can serve as distribution hubs for these countries.
