The port

Palermo

Palermo is the capital of Sicily and its main port for ferries from mainland Italy. The port is very close to the historic centre: the cathedral, the Palatine Chapel and the Capo and Ballarò markets are a few minutes’ walk away.

From Palermo it is easy to reach Monreale, Cefalù, Mondello or Trapani by car, and the motorway crosses the island to Catania or Messina. In summer, crossings are in high demand: book early, especially with a vehicle or a cabin.
