Ferries Capraia Island

After Elba island and Giglio, Capraia is the largest island in the Tuscan archipelago, has a predominantly volcanic terrain and unlike Pianosa has elevations that reach up to 445 meters. Much of the sea territory surrounding Capraia is part of the Tuscan Archipelago National Park.

The island has several coves, such as Cala del Porto, Porto Vecchio and La Mortola, which are the most famous and fill up especially in summer when tourists visit.

Capraia is definitely the most impervious among the islands of the Tuscan archipelago, and offers with its Mediterranean nature many scenic trekking routes suitable for all types of walkers. During the summer period, the island is very busy with tourists, but it always remains a quiet and relaxing place to enjoy the sun and the beauty of the crystal clear water. The island can be visited on foot as there are only a few hundred meters between the village and the main points of interest.

Capraia is also an important dock for those who want to reach Corsica with a pleasure boat because it allows them to split the trip into two stages, spending the night in the small port.

Ferries to Capraia connect Livorno, Tuscany's main port, to the small island year-round with a daily departure, a connection that is doubled in the summer months to allow for a greater influx of tourists.

The size of the ferries to Capraia is slightly smaller than those used on the other Tuscan islands, the crossings are pleasant, always made during daylight hours, and the duration of the crossing is 2 hours and 45 minutes, a time that may seem very long but thanks to the services on board passes pleasantly.

All ferries to Capraia carry passengers, vehicles and pets. Given the short duration of the trip, guests can spend their time on deck or sitting in an armchair in the indoor lounges or on the outdoor decks, admiring the view in peace. During the trip, passengers can use services such as snack bar, cafeteria, toilet, children's playground and Wi-Fi access, if available from the outside decks, it is possible to admire a picturesque coastal landscape.
