Anchoring is prohibited within 0.8nm of the S coast of Nisis Psittalia due to the presence of submarine outfall pipes. An anchorage area extends 6.0nm SW of Nisidha Atalandi, off the SE coast of Nisos Salamina. A fairway, 0.35nm in width, separates the NE side of the anchorage area from an area extending 0.7nm S of the S coast of Nisis Psittalia. The N part of the anchorage is encumbered by Vrakhoi Lhoiradhes (Skrofes), rocks above and below water, lying 0.85nm WSW of Nisis Atalandi. The rocks are covered by the red sector, 065°-095°, of Nisis Atalandi Light.

The fairway of the approaches to Piraeus leads from the vicinity of 37°51.0'N 023°39.0'E to the pilot boarding place off Piraeus approx 5.0nm NNW. The fairway is deep and clear of dangers. Caution: Heavy traffic is liable to be encountered in the approaches to Piraeus, with small craft proceeding in all directions and numerous large vessels at anchor in the roads. Vessels entering and leaving the harbour are required to keep within an entrance channel 130m in width, the centreline of which extends from position 37°56.2'N 23°37.0'E in a 068.5° direction to Kendrikos Limin 0.85nm ENE. The seaward end of the channel is marked by the head of Provlis Socony 37°56.8'N 023°36.8'E and the conspicuous chimney 0.5nm NNW in line bearing 346.5°. Vessels entering harbour should keep close SSE of the centreline. If proceeding to berths in Prolimin they may leave the entrance channel when within the harbour entrance. Vessels leaving harbour should keep close NNW of the centreline. If proceeding to Themistokleous they may leave the entrance channel when clear of the harbour entrance. Within the entrance channel it is forbidden to cross the track of an approaching vessel, or to overtake another vessel. From position 37°56.2'N 023°37.0'E, the fairway of the entrance channel leads ENE passing (with positions given from the head of Molos Themistokleous) 37° 56.3'N 023°37.3'E: NNW of the head of Molos Themistokleous which should be given a berth of at least 15m. Molos Themistokleous Light (round concrete tower, green band) is exhibited on the head of the mole. Then: SSE of the head of Molos Vasileos Yeoryiou, 0.125nm NNE, which should be given a berth of at least 15m.
