Other ways to get to Corsica
Corsica may be an island in the Mediterranean, but there are other ways to get to Corsica besides flying from the UK. Our experts offer a few alternative routes if flying is not for you.
Getting to Corsica by ferry
Corsica has many ferry routes to and from the island. Ferries from France, including Marseille, Genoa, Toulon, Nice and Savona cover most of the island. Ferries from mainland Italy depart from the four ports to Bastia and L’Ile Rousse, with the shortest journey being from Piombino to Bastia.
There is also a car and passenger ferry that connects Corsica to Sardinia. The ferry is between Bonifacio and Santa Teresa di Gallura in Sardinia. This trip takes around 50 minutes and is a great way to spend a day exploring Sardinia.
Our experts can help you to book the inter-island ferry as part of your holiday. We suggest a twin or multi-centre holiday to see both Corsica and Sardinia!
Visit Corsica on a cruise
Many of the popular cruise lines stop in Corsica. Depending on the itinerary, you may visit any one of the ports across Corsica, including Ajaccio, Calvi, Propriano, Bastia, Bonifacio, L’lle Rousse and Porto Vecchio. The larger cruise ships tend to dock in Ajaccio and Calvi.
Arriving in Corsica by plane
Many people will opt to travel to Corsica by plane. Flight routes are available from the UK throughout the summer from London airports to the four main Corsican hubs: Ajaccio, Calvi, Bastia and Figari. Corsica can also be reached year-round, with connecting flights going through Paris, Nice, Marseille, Lyon and Geneva.
Our team can help you book your direct flight and offer expert advice on the best journey for your plans.
Create a magical journey to Corsica
With many ferries departing mainland France and Italy and arriving on the shores of Corsica, some travellers may choose to enjoy a train journey through mainland Europe before their Corsica getaway.
Whether you enjoy a train journey down to Marseille or Nice in France, or head all the way to Genoa, Italy, plenty of ferries (as mentioned above) will help you to reach your final destination on the island of Corsica.
