HOW GETTING HERE
Car ferries leave Piombino almost hourly for Portoferraio in the summer season.
There are also a couple of daily ferries for Porto Azzurro and Rio Marina. The
main shipping companies are the Toremar and Mobylines. Recently a new
"fast" boat carrying a limited number of cars is in service. The
crossing Piombino-Portoferraio takes one hour. A hydrofoil service (no cars)
takes 40 minutes.
