Route guide

Plan your ferry from Capri to Sorrento

Marina Grande is the departure quay on Capri. On Sorrento’s side, the scheduled island ferries use Marina Piccola below the town. Give the two names in the right order to a driver arranging a pickup at either end.

From Capri town, work back from the boarding time through the funicular or bus queue. If you are leaving Anacapri, a late afternoon bus down to the harbour needs a margin before the ship departs.

In Sorrento, the station and bus connections are above the waterfront. An arrival at Marina Piccola is the start of a transfer into town. Allow for the climb, local transport or a taxi before reserving a timed connection.

Caremar’s year-round table includes Capri 07:00 to Sorrento 07:25 and 18:40 to 19:05. Check the individual sailing before booking. A late arrival can be useful for a hotel in Sorrento but may narrow the choice of onward connections. Caremar’s Sorrento–Capri timetable.

When comparing an island-to-mainland ticket, separate the fare for this leg from any Capri landing contribution paid on the outward journey. Check the final return fare and the number of chargeable bags for the operator you choose.

Ferry operators on the Capri–Sorrento route

Both Caremar and NLG publish the return direction. Check the dates at the top of the timetable: a departure in the summer column does not establish a winter sailing. NLG’s Sorrento timetable and fares.

Caremar serviceCaremar

Caremar

Caremar’s fast ferry normally spends around half an hour on the water. An early conventional train connection from Sorrento still needs enough time to get from the quay to the station above town.

Caremar lists a base passenger tariff of €17.40 for its Sorrento–Capri fast ferry in the table checked 1 November 2026. Use the actual island-origin quote to compare luggage and reservation costs. Caremar fare table.

For your Capri to Sorrento sailing, arrange your journey to Capri around the check-in deadline. The ferry may use a different entrance or terminal from other services at the same harbour. Check the boarding instructions before booking a connecting train, bus or taxi.
