Plan your trip to Procida

Everything to settle before you arrive: days, dates, tickets and budget.

Three things decide whether a trip to Procida works, and none of the three is about what to see: which port you leave from, which month you come in, and the fact that from 30 March to 15 October 2026 non-residents’ vehicles cannot land. The fares you find here are the official Caremar ones read on 09/09/2026, not the aggregators’.
