Split-Ancona Ferry Logistics

We would recommend upgrading on the ferry from basic to VIP cabin for £15.00 per person. The taxi from the airport to Ancona/dock costs £30.00 and takes 20 minutes so try and share or, better yet, catch the bus (35 minutes). No left luggage at Ancona airport but good free facility at the Dock
