From Naples: hydrofoil or ferry

In Naples the two piers are close to each other. Hydrofoils leave from Molo Beverello, about 45 minutes; ferries from Calata Porta di Massa, about an hour. The companies are Caremar and SNAV. You reach Molo Beverello by metro, getting off at Municipio.

By car: leave it on the mainland

In 2026, from 30 March to 15 October, cars, motorbikes and mopeds belonging to non-residents may not be landed or driven on the island, except for exempt or authorised categories. If you come by car, leave it before boarding: near Pozzuoli port there are attended car parks a few steps from the pier, and in Naples garages around the port. In summer it is worth booking a space.
