Olbia Civitavecchia ferry Shipping companies, check-in and fares
The Olbia Civitavecchia ferry is a great option to travel from Sardinia to the mainland. It operates throughout the year and lets you bring your vehicle with you, so you can explore the island with ease and enjoy the amazing scenery that it offers.
You can travel on the Olbia Civitavecchia route with three companies, but only Tirrenia runs all year round. The other two are Grandi Navi Veloci and Grimaldi Lines, which are only active in the peak season. There are departures every day of the year. In autumn/winter, Tirrenia has only one departure a day, which is at night; in spring/summer, however, there are more departures and only this company has two departures a day, one of which is around 12:30pm or 3:30pm while the other one is always in the evening hours. The crossing time ranges from 5 hours and 30 minutes to 8 hours at most, but the shortest crossings are always the daytime ones.

Check-in The check-in procedure must be followed in order to avoid problems or delays in the departure of your Olbia Civitavecchia ferry, so please follow these instructions: if you are a passenger on foot without a vehicle, it is sufficient to be at the pier one hour before departure, while if you have your own vehicle, you must be at the pier two hours before departure. In both cases, passengers must go directly to the embarkation gate without stopping at their company's port ticket office, as Mr Ferry will provide you directly with a valid embarkation ticket.
PLEASE NOTE: Before leaving home, make sure you have all the necessary documents with you: valid identity card or passport and your travel document.
