Igoumenitsa to Ancona Ferry

Igoumenitsa to Ancona is one of the longer crossings you'll find in this part of the Mediterranean, carrying cars, campervans, lorries and foot passengers overnight between north-western Greece and the Marche coast of Italy. It isn't a short island hop -- you board in the evening, settle into a cabin or a reclining seat, and wake up on the other side of the Adriatic the next day. Drivers heading down from northern Europe use it to skip the long road route around the Balkans, and plenty of travellers use it the other way too, continuing on from Greece into Italy by sea rather than flying.

Sailings run every day of the year, though how many depart on a given date shifts with the season, so it's worth checking the schedule box above and the monthly table below before you fix your dates. Through the summer you'll generally find a choice of departure times; outside peak season it settles down to a single daily crossing, and it's sensible to book a little further ahead, especially if you're travelling with a vehicle.
