Travel & Accomodation

Here flight options, accommodation and some more recommendations for our out-of-towner guests. The journey to Salina may appear a bit challenging, we suggest you to plan ahead and make sure to follow the below directions. Our main events are all going to be based in Malfa, which is a small town approx 15 minutes from the port of SM Salina. Logistic can be tricky in Salina, therefore in order for you to move in between the events without the needs of a vehicle, we would suggest you to select an accommodation in the town of Malfa.

Flight

Flight to Catania

To reach this wonderful piece of paradise, the closest airports are Catania, Palermo, and Naples. Catania Fontanarossa (CTA) is the closest and suggested airport. From Catania, you will need to take a bus (approx 1,5hours), and finally, a hydrofoil /Aliscafo (approx 1,5 hours). To ensure you catch the last departing boat to Salina, the arrival time of your flight should not be later than 3 pm. On your day of departure, please make sure to book your flight after 11 am to ensure enough time to get off the island and reach the airport. If you manage to depart in the afternoon, you will have a more comfortable commute.

Rental Car

*Shared Shuttle (approx. 15-25 euro)* There are shared minivan leaving Catania and reaching Milazzo numerous times per day: www.alibrando.net/en/ or https://giuntabus.com/ The buses will leave you right at the port of Milazzo.

You can also book a private car transfer on www.eolianshuttle.com/en *Private Car* You can rent a car at the airport asking for the drop off in Milazzo or if you might need your car for traveling after the events you can also leave it parked at the port - Parking in Milazzo: www.centralmilazzo.com You can also evaluate to get to Salina with your own vehicle, however, the ferry options are limited and the cross over from Milazzo takes longer versus the hydrofoil - ships are not particularly fancy, but if you are up for the experience the rental car you got in Sicily is cheaper than the one you can rent in Salina. Here the website to book and review the timetable: https://carontetourist.it/it/siremar

Travel Note

Hydrofoil

Once in Milazzo, you can purchase the hydrofoil ticket at the port or you can also purchase it online ahead, considering it takes 1h40 - 2h to reach the port from Catania airport. We suggest to purchase both ways: Milazzo - SM Salina + SM Salina - Milazzo Please note this is the only way to get to the island.

Rental Car

Once in Salina...

From the port of Santa Marina it takes approx. 20 min by car to reach Malfa, and you have the following options: Often hotels organize the pick up, if you ask them to. We suggest you to coordinate with them directly so the driver will wait for you directly at the pier. *taxi: cost is € 25,00 at the port it is possibile to find some taxi right on the right side. *motorbike / car: there is a rental directly at the port of Santa Marina www.rentbongiorno.it . Instead, if you prefer to arrive to the hotel first, relax, and keep the vehicle for some days flexibly - you can take care once in Malfa.
