Planning Savona-Bastia
Timetable and journey time
Corsica Ferries publishes both day and overnight crossings between Savona and Bastia. According to the current route feed, sailings take 5 hours 45 minutes to 9 hours 30 minutes. A single standard duration would be misleading: the operator's route page describes daytime crossings of about six to seven hours, while overnight sailings may be scheduled more slowly.
Check the exact departure in the timetable and again in your booking confirmation. Sailing days, vessels and times can change with the season.
Vado Ligure port and check-in
The official departure port is Vado Ligure. The terminal address is Calata Nord, Porto Vado, 17047 Vado Ligure. The approach is signposted from the A10 motorway.
Corsica Ferries states a latest check-in of one hour before departure with a vehicle and 30 minutes without one, while recommending more time in high season. Your ticket and booking confirmation remain authoritative because a particular sailing may have different instructions. Every traveller, including children, needs the required valid identity document.
Car, motorhome and pet
Cars, motorcycles, motorhomes and trailers can travel in the appropriate booked category. Enter the full external dimensions, including roof boxes, racks and the towbar. Access to the vehicle deck is closed during the crossing. See our motorhome guide for larger vehicles.
Pets must be declared when booking. Corsica Ferries permits dogs to remain with their accompanying person in approved areas; follow its current leash and muzzle instructions. Do not transfer these rules to another operator. Documents and operator policies are compared in our pet guide.
