Ferry from Corsica to Sardinia

About Corsica

Corsica is a French island situated in the Mediterranean Sea and is known for its beautiful coastline of more than two hundred beaches. With its position in the North of the Mediterranean, getting to Corsica by ferry is quick and easy and whether you choose to sail from France or Italy, there’s a huge selection of ferry routes to choose from with ports in each corner of the island. Departures from France are available from the ports of Toulon, Nice and Marseille. Crossings operate daily, year round, and increase with demand around peak season. Crossings from Italy depart the ports of Savona and Genoa in the north and Livorno and Piombino on the west coast of Italy. As with the crossings from France, due to Corsica’s popularity as a destination, there are year round connections to the island, increasing during the summer period. In additions, there is also a ferry crossing bridging the short gap to Sardinia, south of Corsica. The majority of ferry passengers arrive by car, though vehicles can be rented from most port towns. The island has a well-connected road network which will allow you to take any one of the number of smooth roads along the coastline to reach the stunning beaches and sheltered coves, getting off the tourist track. Impossible to miss during your visit are the sandy beaches with their crystal clear waters. Many of the beaches offer a range of activities like volley ball, surfing, yachting, canoeing, skiing, banana boat rides, fishing and more.

About Sardinia

Sardinia is a large Italian island in the Mediterranean Sea, immediately south of Corsica and north of Tunisia. With nearly two thousand kilometres of coastline, Sardinia is more known for its expansive, mountainous interior laced with hiking trails. Unsurprisingly, incredible hilltop views come in abundance, but it also has beaches, bays and shorelines to rival anywhere in the world. Sardinian culture is rich with peculiarities, with the calendar filled with exciting festivals and the cuisine reflecting a unique spin on the Italian classics, most notably the famed maggot-infused cheese. However, perhaps the most intriguing characteristic of Sardinia is the presence of nuraghi, fascinating Bronze Age stone ruinous towers and settlements shaped like enormous beehives. Reaching Sardinia by ferry is a popular choice in southern Europe, given its convenient location in the Mediterranean Sea and frequency of ports along its coast. Not only can you sail from mainland Italy, numerous routes are available from various international cities, too.
