Isola Bianca (Stazione Marittima)

Getting into town
Cruise ships berth at Isola Bianca, the port's passenger island. A free internal port shuttle links the berths with the Stazione Marittima building. From there the centre (Corso Umberto) is about 1.6 km, a flat 20–25 minute walk along Viale Isola Bianca, or take town bus line 9 (ASPO) or a taxi from the rank outside. Some cruise lines also run their own shuttle into town.
Step-free
The route into town along Viale Isola Bianca is flat. The terminal building has an info point for help on the day.
