Naples – Cagliari is the overnight crossing between Campania and the capital of Sardinia. Grimaldi Lines runs it two to four times a week all year, with a morning arrival in Cagliari.
The crossing is shared between meals, rest in the cabin and a walk on deck. On overnight routes, bring warm clothes: the deck is cool even in summer.
It is the solution for travellers from southern Italy who want to avoid driving up to Civitavecchia. A cabin is recommended for the long crossing.

Naples
Naples spreads at the foot of Vesuvius, at the head of a famous bay, and its historic centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Castel Nuovo, a medieval fortress with round towers, guards the port, and Spaccanapoli street cuts the old town in two. Neapolitan pizza, born here, is enjoyed in historic pizzerias a stone’s throw from the harbour. Pompeii, Herculaneum and the Amalfi Coast are an hour’s drive away, enough to fill a day before the overnight crossing to Cagliari.
Cagliari
Ferries from Civitavecchia, Naples and Palermo arrive in Cagliari at the port at the foot of the old town, a few minutes’ walk from the Marina district and Piazza del Carmine. Elmas airport is about ten kilometres away, and the road to Villasimius or to Nora and the south coast starts on the edge of town.
