Route choice & fare planning

A direct overnight Marseille ferry to southern Corsica

Marseille–Porto-Vecchio removes the need to cross Corsica by road from Bastia or Ajaccio and is therefore particularly useful for holidays in the far south.

La Méridionale currently operates the direct service aboard Girolata, with an overnight crossing of approximately 14 hours and several departures a week.

Private cabins, vehicle carriage and onboard dining make the route well suited to road trips and longer stays in southern Corsica.

Even on Marseille to Porto-Vecchio, fares and vessel assignments can vary by departure, so compare the live options rather than relying only on a typical journey time.

For Marseille to Porto-Vecchio, the advertised crossing time is only one part of the journey. Allow for port access, check-in, boarding and disembarkation when deciding which departure best fits the day.
