How much are the costs if I want to ferry from Toulon for instance to Menorca? Or from Barcelona to Menorca? What kind of price can I expect?

We did a test booking on Corsica Ferries and all ticket prices for ‘foot-passengers' remain the same at about € 40 to € 50 per person. These ferries aren't that expensive.
