Ferry Genoa – Porto Torres

Genoa – Porto Torres with Moby Lines

Genoa – Porto Torres is the great overnight link between Liguria and north-western Sardinia. According to the programmes we consulted, Moby Lines runs it every day of the year, alongside GNV and Tirrenia, which makes it one of the best-served routes on the island.

The crossing alternates meals, rest and walks on deck. Passengers with a vehicle leave it in the garage and take their luggage to the cabin or the lounge.

You arrive in the morning at Porto Torres, about twenty kilometres from Sassari and forty from Alghero. It is an excellent entry point for the north-west coast, La Pelosa and Stintino.

Genoa

Genoa is the great port of Liguria, rising in an amphitheatre between the sea and the hills. Its historic centre, one of the largest in Europe, mixes medieval lanes, Renaissance palaces and lively squares, and the Palazzi dei Rolli have been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2006. The Lanterna, a sixteenth-century lighthouse, has watched over the harbour entrance for centuries, while the Aquarium, opened in 1992 in the Porto Antico redeveloped by Renzo Piano, draws visitors from all over Italy. Focaccia and pesto, both born here, are best tasted before you board.

Porto Torres

Porto Torres is the main port of north-western Sardinia: ferries from Genoa, Civitavecchia, Toulon and Barcelona arrive here, mostly after an overnight crossing. Sassari, the island’s second city, is about twenty kilometres away, and Alghero about forty. For travellers without a car, the train links Porto Torres to Sassari, then to Cagliari.
