Portoferraio Sea Bus

taxi boat portoferraio

There is a new sea transport service for the summer of 2018, a passengers-only boat in the gulf of Portoferraio, that has been created thanks to the European project of Elba Sharing.

This new service will run from July 25th to September 15th, and, with 12 trips a day, connects all the major areas in the gulf of Portoferraio: Portoferraio - Molo Gallo, San Giovanni, Fabricia, Magazzini, Ottone and Bagnaia

Two motorboats for passenger transport only are available: Punta Chiappa II (10 metres long) and Azzurra II (18, 50 metres long), depending on the request at the time.

As well as providing passenger service, it can also provide assistance at sea, or be used as a tugboat or as a "watch tower" should there be need; it will be moored at the Molo Chicchero in San Giovanni.
