Where is the Maceio cruise port?

Ships dock at the Porto de Maceio, where the passenger terminal stands behind berth 3 and holds up to 4,000 people, with restrooms, a medical service and a pantry. The cathedral in the city centre is about 5 km by road (12-20 minutes) and the Pajucara craft market about 3.5 km (9-14 minutes). Walking routes out of the port use restricted or private roads, so a taxi or bus is the practical way into town.
