The Split to Ancona crossing links Split in Croatia with Ancona in Italy.
For a departure from Split, start by locating the ferry terminal and checking how to reach the correct boarding point. Split’s ferry port is beside the city centre and bus/rail terminal, with onward roads serving the Dalmatian coast.
On the other side of the crossing, Ancona is your arrival port. Ancona’s centre is compact but hilly, with buses and rail useful for connecting the port to the wider Marche region.
Compare the Split departure and Ancona arrival on the same dated itinerary. Sailing times and intermediate calls can differ between directions, so use the Split to Ancona result when planning your trip rather than assuming the outward timetable applies in reverse.
Check the total cost for everyone travelling, including any vehicle, reserved seat, cabin or other option offered. A later arrival in Ancona may affect your next connection or accommodation, so compare the whole journey as well as the fare.
