The bus company Autolinee Toscana (AT) operates several regular routes in the center of Portoferraio, as well as extra-urban routes: no. 116 (Portoferraio - Marciana Marina - Pomonte - Marina di Campo), no. 117 (Portoferraio - Porto Azzurro - Rio Elba - Rio Marina - Cavo), and no. 118 (Portoferraio - Bagnaia - Lacona) Departures are generally regular, but frankly, it is difficult to rely solely on public transportation to get between the beaches and hotels of the island.

The three ports of arrival on the island of Elba are: Portoferraio, Rio Marina and Cavo. The crossing between Piombino and Portoferraio takes 40 minutes to an hour depending on the boat. Between Piombino and Rio Marina it takes about 45 minutes. Up to four crossings per day in winter, and ten in high season. From Rio Marina, it is also possible to dock on the island of Pianosa: once a day in low season (no more departures in summer), the journey takes about 1 hour and 50 minutes. Between Piombino and Cavo: about 15 minutes.

The Moby shipping company also operates crossings between the port of Piombino, in the province of Livorno, Tuscany, and the three ports of Elba, namely Portoferraio, Cavo and Rio Marina.

A smart plan! Moby and Toremar have teamed up to offer a service that can come in very handy: the free "Parti Prima" package. It allows you to use your ticket purchased from either company and board a ferry before the initial time of your reservation, depending on availability on board.
