The ferries that depart from Genoa<\/strong> for Sardinia<\/strong> arrive in Porto Torres<\/strong> throughout the year and in the port of Olbia<\/strong> only in some months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the Porto Torres route<\/strong> we find Tirrenia<\/strong> carriers departing from Genoa<\/strong> every month, while those of GNV<\/strong> are operational from mid-May to mid-October. It is therefore possible to travel on this route at any time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the Olbia route<\/strong>, departing from the port of the Ligurian capital<\/strong>, from mid-May to the end of October<\/strong>, the units of the Moby<\/strong> and GNV<\/strong> fleets are available, in principle, daily. In fact, there are very few days when there are no trips on the route during these months in which it is active.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A unit from the Moby shipping company sails from mid-May to the end of October<\/strong> almost daily and, in the same period, a GNV<\/strong> ship, which stops a few days in May, in October and on weekends, thus covering the route, on average and high season, almost every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
