Practical tips
Boats on the Amalfi Coast fill up in summer and on sunny weekends. Reserve your seat online beforehand rather than counting on a spot at the quay, so you avoid paying more or missing your crossing.
Go to Salerno's passenger harbour, not the railway station, and check the departure point on your ticket. Arriving at the wrong spot is the easiest way to miss a boat, so read the booking details first.
Ravello is perched above the sea, so the boat is only part of the trip. Check where you arrive and how you reach the town afterwards, especially if you carry heavy luggage or arrive late in the day.
Boats can be cancelled or delayed when the sea is rough. Avoid scheduling tight connections, such as a flight or a long train, on the same day, and check the service status before you leave your hotel.
Last departures can be early outside the summer season. Look up the final return option before you head to Ravello so you are not stuck on the coast in the evening, and keep your ticket handy.
The journey experience
Salerno to Ravello is one of those Amalfi Coast trips where it pays to know the sea route before you plan anything else. The ferry is the confirmed option on this route, so you don't have to weigh train, coach and flight against each other. The comparison table on this page shows duration and price range at a glance, so you can check it in seconds.
The ferry leaves from Salerno's waterfront and gives you what a winding coastal road can't: open decks, views of the cliffs and villages from the water, and room for your luggage. It is a relaxed way to start a day on the coast, and it usually feels calmer than a crowded road in summer. Services are seasonal and depend on the weather, so the operator and the timetable can change from one period to the next.
Ravello sits on a hillside above the sea, so the key question is not just how you get there but where you land and how you make the last stretch uphill. Check the arrival point and the onward connection before you book. In high season, reserve ahead and keep a flexible plan in case the sea is rough. Book online for instant confirmation and carry your ticket on your phone.

How long to visit Ravello?
Ravello deserves 1 to 2 days. In one day, visit Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone, walk the village and enjoy the views over the Amalfi Coast. With a second day, hike the Path of the Gods or the Valle delle Ferriere trail down to Amalfi or Atrani. Stay overnight if you can: once the day-trippers leave, the village is much calmer.
