What a convoluted mess, trying to figure out exactly where to go after you get your ticket! The lines there are like a serpentine, and unfortunately one of the cars broke down in line and we had to work around it. The ride over however was quite smooth, took 20 minutes 20 minute cruise across from Calabria to Sicily. Villa San Giovanni Porto serves as the vital gateway to Sicily, being the only direct route to the island. Its strategic significance cannot be overstated. However, the overall organization and signage at the could benefit from improvement. Navigating the facilities and understanding the processes could be smoother for travelers. Despite these areas of concern, the port's unique role in connecting mainland Italy to Sicily remains its most defining feature. Took the from Reggio Calabria to Massina. Very easy. A fantastic has a train station as well with a great little cafe serving sandwiches & amazing coffee ! Staff are very helpful fantastic crossing to Messina & other ports ! I use this all the time when I back packing! Try it your self ! Great way to get to and from Sicily with your car by this ferry. The view is beautiful. Very simple set up that works very well. A little confusing actually getting to the terminal. However very quick and easy loading onto Very good organized, fast load and unload. If you miss the right entrance to the harbor, you have to go back to the highway and try again... Coming from the mainland to Sicily you gotta pass through V. San G. port. As of 2025 one way to Sicily island costs you 2.50€ cash or card. The can only be purchased at the office not online. If you bought a train to a city via Trainline for example and the journey includes the the is not included. They will make you buy one. So as soon as you arrive at the go quickly to the office. V. San G. It’s a and a train station. Going in between should take you 5 minutes.
