Maritime connections to the island of Pantelleria<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The island of Pantelleria<\/a>, south-west of Sicily and a few miles away from the Tunisian coast, is part of the Free Municipal Consortium of Trapani and covers an area of \u200b\u200babout eighty square kilometers. Accessible by ferry with or without a vehicle, it is also served by hydrofoils during the summer season, in any case with departures from Trapani terminals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the port of Trapani<\/a>, in the northern area, not far from the historic center, precisely in front of the ancient Palazzo delle Dogane, there are the embarkation points: the Garibaldi quay and the Sanit\u00e0 pier. The Trapani maritime station is convenient to reach both from the A29 motorway and from the nearby train station.<\/p>\n\n\n

Trapani – Pantelleria ferries<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Trapani-Pantelleria ferries cover the route daily all year round, with both day and night crossings. The approximately 88 nautical miles are covered by Siremar<\/a> ships, on which it is also possible to embark cars and motorcycles, in approximately seven hours. The trip can be made with the Bridge Passage<\/em> ticket, in an Armchair<\/em>, in a single, double, triple or quadruple Cabin<\/em> (Superior) or in a single or double internal cabin (Second class).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hydrofoils Trapani – Pantelleria<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Liberty Lines<\/a> hydrofoils depart from Trapani and cross the Sicilian Channel to reach Pantelleria only in summer, not every day but almost. The travel time of the navigation is around two hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
