Why travel by ferry from Naples to Santa Maria Salina?

Whether you're travelling alone, as a couple or with the family, a Naples to Santa Maria Salina ferry can be a convenient and enjoyable option for getting to Santa Maria Salina. Here are 3 reasons why we think a ferry from Naples to Santa Maria Salina is an ideal way to travel.

It's much less boring than on a plane
If you compare the speed, the plane is certainly the fastest way to get from Naples to Santa Maria Salina. But you are stuck in your seat, strapped in by your seatbelt, and there is almost no opportunity to travel. On the other hand, during the Naples Santa Maria Salina crossing on the SNAV, Siremar or Alilauro ferry, you have total freedom in your activities, to eat, walk, entertain or rest. A flight will never provide you with so many services during the trip.
For a caring staff
Throughout the journey from Naples to Santa Maria Salina, a professional and helpful crew will be on hand to assist you. You can find an 'information point' on the ship, mostly on the main deck.
You get much more rest than in the car
Long car journeys are tiring and require constant vigilance when driving. The Naples Santa Maria Salina ferry trip is exactly the opposite. On board, depending on the Alilauro, Siremar or SNAV ship in service, everything is designed to give you time to relax in the calm of comfortable reclining lounges, to lounge on the outside decks, to entertain and to have fun. You're sure to start your holiday in Santa Maria Salina already rested.
