Boat and Ferry Travel

Virtu Ferries runs car and passenger catamarans most days of the week between Malta, Catania, and Pozzallo on Sicily. Summer and winter schedules vary.

Daily car and passenger ferries run year-round from Ċirkewwa (northwest Malta) to Mġarr Harbor on Gozo. One service leaves weekdays from Pietà (near Valletta) for Gozo but this is primarily a cargo service, only taking private vehicles on a standby basis if space allows. Commuter ferry service links Sliema to Valletta.
