Summer ferries: destinations in Corsica, Sardinia and Sicily

The current summer will be remembered as one of the best tourist seasons in recent times, especially if we talk about the major islands of the Mediterranean. For weeks now, ferries to destinations in Corsica, Sardinia, and Sicily have been experiencing an unprecedented increase in bookings. By the way, if you plan to go on vacation to these places, we recommend that you book the ferries before they are sold out. In this article we will discuss Porto Vecchio in Corsica, Porto Torres in Sardinia, and Lipari in Sicily. Three must-visit destinations recommended for your next beach vacation-

Porto Vecchio and Porto Torres the two shores of the Straits of Bonifacio

Porto Vecchio and Porto Torres are two fantastic tourist destinations, located opposite each other on opposite sides of the so-called Strait of the Straits of Bonifacio that divides Corsica from Sardinia. Both of these localities are gateways to their home regions, important towns because of their geographical location, with a rich history behind them from their founding in Roman times to the present day. Both Porto Vecchio and Porto Torres are two favorite destinations of international tourism suitable for travelers who wish to combine beach relaxation, cultural interests and entertainment in the same vacation, avoiding those places taken by storm by mass tourism.

Porto Vecchio is famous for its beaches such as Palombaggia beach, considered one of the most beautiful beaches in Corsica, and Santa Giulia beach characterized by fine sand and turquoise waters. It is an ideal place for lovers of the sea and nature, thanks in part to the forests surrounding the historic center, but also for culture enthusiasts who can discover the ancient charm of Corsican villages here. Reaching Porto Vecchio is easy, whether aboard ferries from Nice, Marseille, to Toulon, or even from the Gulf of Oranges and Porto Torres opposite.

Porto Torres on the northwest coast of Sardinia, in many ways, is a similar destination to the neighboring Porto Vecchio. It divides them, and connects them, the Strait of the Straits of Bonifacio. Ferries to Porto Torres and Porto Vecchio take 4 hours and 45 minutes to complete the crossings.

Porto Torres is also a charming seaside resort suitable for a relaxing, yet fun and culturally stimulating vacation. The Ancient Roman Baths, well preserved, bear witness to Porto Torres’ ancient past, but, even today, they are one of the city’s most popular tourist attractions. The wonderful beaches of the northern coast of Sardinia and the Asinara National Park are two other reasons to visit Porto Torres, certainly one of the best destinations for this summer.

Lipari the myth of the Aeolian islands

The third recommended destination for this summer is.

Lipari in the Aeolian Islands

. A destination that needs no introduction. Like Porto Vecchio and Porto Torres, this destination must also be counted among the Mediterranean’s land-based paradises. Located 10.7 miles from Cape Milazzo, Lipari is the main Aeolian island, the largest and best connected of the archipelago. Ideal for spending unforgettable vacations between sea and fun, but also a strategic point for exploring the other Aeolian sisters. Ferries leave from Lipari for.
Salina, Vulcano, Stromboli, Filicudi, Alicudi and Panarea

Like all of the Aeolian Islands, Lipari has volcanic origins. The island has fascinating rock formations and landscapes shaped by volcanic activity, including cliffs, sea caves, and black or white sand beaches (as far as pumice beaches are concerned). Lipari, of course, is also well connected and easy to reach aboard ferries and hydrofoils from Milazzo, Messina, and Palermo. (A convenient option for those reaching Sicily by plane).
