The good news is that the Tremiti Islands are one of the most affordable destinations of all for those travelling by ferry from Italy.

The cheapest ticket departs from Termoli, which is also the port with the highest number of departures throughout the year. With NLG Navigazione Libera del Golfo and Tirrenia, an adult walk-on passenger pays around €19–20 per crossing in low season — hard to beat anywhere in the Mediterranean. The average price is still around €20–25 even with dynamic fares.

If you depart instead from the ports of the Gargano — Vieste, Peschici, or Rodi Garganico — fares are slightly higher, around €25–30 per adult per crossing. The most affordable port of all is, however, Manfredonia, from which tickets start from around €13 — although it has fewer departures and is further away compared to the others.

Crossing times vary depending on the departure port and the type of vessel — but in general the Tremiti Islands are among the fastest islands to reach in Italy.

The most used port is Termoli, from which the crossing takes around 1 hour and 15 minutes by traditional ferry, dropping to 50 minutes by hydrofoil — the fastest option available on the route. Departures are daily year-round, with the first sailing in the morning and the return in the late afternoon.

If you depart from the Gargano ports, times vary considerably depending on the geographical location:

Vieste — around 1 hour

Rodi Garganico — around 1 hour and 15 minutes

Peschici — around 1 hour and 30 minutes

Manfredonia — around 3 hours, the longest crossing of all

There is no single "best" port in absolute terms — it depends on where you are travelling from and what time of year you are travelling.

If you are looking for the most convenient and reliable solution year-round, there is only one answer: Termoli. It is the only port that guarantees daily departures to the Tremiti Islands even in low season, with multiple sailings per day and both ferries and hydrofoils available. It is easily reached by car from the A14 motorway and is around 24 nautical miles from the islands — less than an hour by hydrofoil.

If you are already in Puglia on holiday, the Gargano ports are the natural and often faster choice:

Rodi Garganico — the closest port to the Tremiti Islands (20.8 nautical miles), with a crossing of around 50 minutes; ideal for those looking for the shortest route

Vieste — an excellent alternative with NLG and Gruppo Armatori Garganici hydrofoils, crossing time from 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes

Peschici and Capojale — also convenient if you are already in the area, with seasonal sailings

Manfredonia — available but not recommended for those in a hurry: the crossing takes around 3 hours

One practical detail to keep in mind: all Gargano ports operate only from late April to September. Outside this window, Termoli remains the only option and automatically becomes the obligatory choice.

The first thing to know is that cars cannot go to the Tremiti Islands. Private vehicles cannot be transported to the archipelago (except with special permits for residents), so you will necessarily have to leave your car at the departure port. The good news is that all the main ports have convenient options available, both free and paid.

The best-organised port for long-stay parking is Termoli, with several options:

Porto Car Park — attended 24h, less than 100 metres from the boarding point, opens one hour before each departure; for info and bookings: tel. 0875.703345 or parcheggiodelportotermoli@gmail.com

Marina di San Pietro — paid parking around 500 metres from the boarding point, with full facilities; also excellent for campervans

Port square and white lines — free option on nearby streets, but fills up very quickly in high season; watch out for street-cleaning schedules to avoid fines

Publiparking multi-storey car park — available in the town centre, around 800 metres from the boarding point

From the other Gargano ports:

Vieste — convenient parking directly in the port area, just a few steps from boarding

Rodi Garganico — parking around 13 minutes on foot from the port; if you have luggage, it is better to call a taxi

Peschici — several car parks nearby; a taxi is also recommended here to reach the boarding point

For multi-day stays in the height of summer, the attended car park in Termoli remains the most hassle-free choice: around €8–10 per day, but the peace of mind of finding your car safe and sound is worth the expense.
