Ferry from Igoumenitsa to Bari (Italy)

Igoumenitsa sits on the Ionian coast of Epirus, in Greece's north-west corner, and its ferry terminal is one of the country's busiest gateways to Italy. Bari, on the Adriatic side of Puglia, is the mirror image at the other end: a working port city rather than a resort, with the crossing berths a short walk from the old town. This is a proper open-sea passage rather than a hop between islands, and most people book it to bring a car or motorbike across rather than to travel on foot. Operators file their timetables in stages through the year, so later months on this page may show as not yet published even in season -- check the schedule box above for the latest confirmed dates rather than assuming the route ends when today's table runs out.

At the height of summer you can expect several sailings a day, dropping back to a leaner, still daily, service either side of the peak. Departures are timed so that a good stretch of the crossing happens overnight, which suits anyone who would rather sleep through open water than watch it.

Hiring a car

Is it worth renting a car in Igoumenitsa?

Igoumenitsa is mostly a transit port for Corfu and Italy ferries, and car rental agencies cluster right around the harbour, often cheaper than picking one up on Corfu itself. If you're heading into Epirus, to Ioannina or Zagori's stone villages, a car is essential since public transport there is thin; for a straight crossing to Corfu, many go on foot and rent on arrival instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tips for the Igoumenitsa to Bari ferry

• Igoumenitsa has two separate terminals: the domestic terminal in the northern port serves Corfu and Paxos ferries, while the international terminal to the south handles Italy-bound ships. Follow signs carefully so you do not queue at the wrong one.
• If you are taking a car on the Corfu shuttle, join the vehicle queue at least 30 minutes before departure – the driver stays with the car but other passengers must get out and board separately.
• You can buy tickets for the Corfu crossing on the day from agencies at the port, such as Milano Travel and Euroline Shipping, near the domestic terminal – with 20+ daily departures there is usually no need to book ahead.
• Sunglasses are essential on open deck in the Aegean – the reflected glare off the water is very intense, especially in the middle of the day.
• On routes served by high-speed catamarans, all seats are assigned – choose seats towards the centre of the vessel for the smoothest ride in choppy conditions.
