Naples to Capri Ferry Question

[PEKnCHUG]

My question is, how do you know which size of ferry/hydrofoil that you are getting when purchasing the ticket? Are there 2 or 3 sizes of ferries?

 

The Ferry schedule online refers to a "High Speed Ferry", "Ferry" and "Slow Ferry". Was checking for ideas and not trying to buy online.

 

Tom's Port Guide says "I think size matters. Next time, I'll try to book on the biggest boats. Photo at left is one of the larger, more comfortable hydrofoil boats. "

 

A big thank you to Hank and others that have posted very useful tips on where and when to purchase the tickets.

 

My hubby can get seasick. The Bonine, wrist band and Verti-Go-Less already packed. I am thinking if we can get there fast but cut down the odds of sickness a little, I should try.

 

Thank you.

Ah Tom, whose guides are full of holes and mistakes.

 

The only ferries you'll get from Molo Beverello, the pier adjacent to the cruise port, are high speed ones. They are all a decent size.

 

The ferries and slow ferries use Calata Porta di Massa and they carry cars as well as people, which is why they are larger and slower. If you want to take one of these you'll need to walk a little less than half a mile northeast along the waterfront.
