The Portoferraio Bastia route is the ideal solution for reaching Corsica from Elba island.
The shipping company that allows the connection between the two islands is Elba Ferries, and given the proximity between Bastia and Portoferraio, the route has a short duration of about one hour and 30 minutes. The route runs exclusively from June to mid-September, two days a week: Thursday and Friday mornings.
Ferry traffic to Bastia port is well organized into dedicated areas for tourist and commercial traffic, each with its own access. The Vieux Port welcomes tourist boats and is geared toward fishing, while the Toga marina enjoys more than 300 berths.
The island of Corsica, and Bastia in particular, is one of the most popular summer holiday destination, with thousands of visitors each year choosing the ferry as a quick way to disembark on the island.
The shipping companies that run services to and from Corsica are Moby and Corsica Sardinia Elba Ferries.
The port is strategically located because you will be able to find Bastia Poretta Airport and the train station nearby; there are also various services such as bars, restaurants, hotels, and car rentals near the port.
The port of Bastia is the second-largest passenger port in France, welcoming about three million passengers a year, and the number is growing all the time!
Ferries Portoferraio Bastia On board services
The Portoferraio Bastia ferries can embark both passengers and vehicles, and the spacious garages allow for vehicles such as cars, motorcycles, caravans, and campers.
Because of the short route, which is about 90 minutes, the ferries that allow the connection do not have cabins but are nevertheless equipped with every comfort to allow passengers to travel in total comfort and relaxation, for example service such as a cafeteria, a bar, a children's playroom, air conditioning, some stores, and toilets.
In addition to being able to take the car with you, pets can also be brought, which must be provided with a leash, muzzle if necessary and health documentation. They will not have access to the onboard bar area, but there will be special areas where they can enjoy the crossing with their owner.
You will need to show up for boarding at least an hour before departure, especially if you will be traveling with a vehicle in tow. We recommend, in high season especially, given the high crowds at the ports, to show up even an hour and a half before, so you have time to settle in onboard for the crossing.
