Visitors to the port of Livorno, set into the coastline of a bustling metropolitan on the west-coast of Italy, will immediately be struck by its size. Dockyard cranes stretch towards the Mediterranean skyline and colossal freight ships prowl the harbour, all to facilitate the port’s yearly haul of 30 million tonnes of incoming cargo. Though much of the predominantly industrial port is inaccessible to pedestrians, the cruise terminal is a welcoming open-plan space featuring a food court and free Wi-Fi. A shuttle bus service is also available for travel into the heart of the city. This short trip takes passengers over a canal teeming with small private boats before stopping in the shadow of the Palazzo Communale, Livorno’s 18th century town hall that reflects the city’s distinctive neo-renaissance architectural style. The port of Livorno offers a variety of routes for passengers wanting to explore the Mediterranean and beyond. There are plenty of daily excursions across the pristine Tyrrhenian sea, with stops in the mountainous French isle of Corsica and the Italian islands of Scilly and Sardinia further south. Longer-haul trips into Barcelona and Tangier Med in Morocco leave on a weekly basis too, both routes skirting the ocean border between Europe and Africa.
The Italian island of Capraia, one of the seven isles that make up the Tuscan Archipelago, is a small commune of rugged hills carpeted with the deep greens of unspoiled plant-life. Nestled between the Mediterranean wilds on the northern coast is the island’s only village. This tiny settlement, built in a sickle-shape around a narrow inlet of the Ligurian Sea, is shadowed by the sheer cliff-side walls of the Fortress of St George which was built in the 16th Century to defend the village from pirate raids. The port of Capraia sits at the foot of a valley which gradually descends towards the coast. Ferries dock at the end of a narrow pier that juts into the clear blue waters of a cliff-lined bay. Due to the remote nature of the island, travelling to and from the port is largely managed on foot via a network of scenic footpaths that snake through the hills and command spectacular views across the verdant landscape. Travelling by car is difficult as the island has just one asphalt road that leads solely from the village to the harbour. Currently only one passenger service operates from the port. A Toremar line ferry sails a number of times throughout the week to the Italian mainland city of Livorno, a short jaunt eastward across the Ligurian Sea.
