About this tour
Slip between Amalfi and Salerno by sea on a 35-minute to one-hour ferry crossing that beats the coastal road hands down. You'll travel past sheer cliffs and pastel-painted villages with the Tyrrhenian at your feet. The boat runs frequently throughout the day, has both sheltered and open decks, and gets you where you're going without the winding drive or the stress. A working transfer that doubles as scenery.

- Amalfi Coast viewed properly: from deck level
- Faster alternative to winding cliff-edge roads
- Multiple daily sailings, book on your phone
- Indoor seating and outdoor sun decks available
- One small carry-on bag included per person
- Direct e-ticket, no queues at the terminal
What to expect
You'll receive an e-ticket by email once booked. Arrive at the Amalfi or Salerno ferry terminal with your confirmation and head straight to boarding—no separate check-in required. The vessel has both covered cabins and open-air decks; most travellers split time between watching the coastline unwind and finding a sheltered seat. The crossing is smooth in good weather, though the captain keeps pace steady. Infants sit on an adult's lap; prams fold and stow. Service animals travel free.
Good to know
Bring water and sunscreen; the ferry doesn't stock snacks. Not suitable if you're prone to seasickness—consider medication beforehand. No hotel transfers included; you'll need your own way to the terminal. Strollers and prams welcome but must be collapsible.
