Who SNAV is.
SNAV S.p.A. is one of the leading shipping companies in the Mediterranean. Its routes link Naples and the islands of the Gulf every day, all year round, with the frequency and punctuality of city transport; from May to September Naples is connected to the Aeolian Islands, Ponza and Ventotene, while from April to October its ships sail Ancona to Split, in Croatia.
Captains, officers and crew are chosen among the most experienced, and the vessels are maintained daily — the kind of safety only a large fleet can guarantee. Book any SNAV crossing on Coastrider: ask and she shows live schedules right in the chat.
