Ferry Map & Routes to Sardinia
Managing over three million annual passengers, the northern docks of Olbia and Porto Torres are your primary maritime gateways into the Tyrrhenian Sea. Moby Lines, Grimaldi Lines, and Tirrenia are the largest operators pushing massive roll-on/roll-off ships from the Italian mainland ports of Livorno and Civitavecchia. Load your car onto the deck because driving is the only way to reach the island’s rugged interior. From these northern hubs, you can also easily catch a fast 50-minute international crossing straight to Corsica.
