Route guide

Plan your Pozzallo to Valletta ferry journey

Virtu Ferries connects Pozzallo in Sicily with Malta’s Grand Harbour. Its Malta–Pozzallo booking service offers a short sea link for passengers and vehicles.

Use the Virtu Ferries terminal details in Malta, rather than a general cruise-ship berth.

Check the high-speed sailing schedule before adding a same-day onward connection.

Confirm that your booking includes the vehicle if you are travelling by car.

Plan the two port connections as part of the same itinerary. For Pozzallo to Valletta, compare where the ferry leaves and where it arrives, then check your transfer or driving time on each side. If the return journey uses a different mainland or island port, allow for that change when arranging accommodation and onward travel.

    Including this crossing in a trip from the UK

    Allow for the overland journey to Pozzallo before choosing the ferry. A separately booked flight, train or earlier crossing may not protect you if you miss check-in. Use local times on both sides and check entry rules for each country on your full itinerary. Travel within Europe is not automatically free of document checks.

    Planning the wider journey in Malta

    The Sicily–Malta ferry is a separate international leg from any journey to Sicily. Check whether a ticket includes a coach connection, the actual Maltese terminal and the space available for your vehicle.

    Planning advice for the journey from Britain

    Passengers, vehicles and the fare

    Select the correct passenger category before comparing Pozzallo to Valletta fares. A passenger-only boat cannot take a car, and a vehicle ferry may still have limited bicycle or foot-passenger availability. The travel modes shown in the facts panel should be checked against the specific sailing.

    For a vehicle booking, give the full height and length including a roof box, rear rack or trailer. Where accommodation is offered, check whether a cabin or seat is required and whether meals are included. Request mobility assistance and any pet space before completing the booking, because these can have separate capacity limits.

    Prices depend on the date, passenger mix, vehicle and ticket conditions. Compare the complete return cost and the amendment or cancellation terms. No fixed fare on this guide should replace a dated quote.
