Table of Contents
Getting to the terminal
Ferries leave Alcúdia from the Muelle Comercial in Port d’Alcúdia. The port serves several operators, so follow the access and check-in details provided by the operator shown on your booking. If you are travelling with a vehicle, follow the port signs and keep your boarding pass and ID documents handy.
Check-in
For Baleària, arrive at least 90 minutes before departure with a vehicle or at least 60 minutes before departure on foot. Menorca Lines and Corsica Ferries publish their own deadlines. Once you have selected a sailing, the operator's check-in deadline and the time on your booking confirmation apply.
The vehicle type, length and height must match your booking. Include roof boxes, bicycle racks and trailers in the dimensions you provide.
On board
Both fast and conventional ferries may operate on this route. Seating classes, outdoor decks, food and drink, and possible pet accommodation are therefore not standard across the route. Check the facilities on your selected departure.
Vehicles, bicycles and pets
A car, motorcycle, motorhome or bicycle is only confirmed if the relevant category is offered for that departure. Pet booking and accommodation options differ by operator and vessel; add your pet when booking.
Arrival and onward travel
In Ciutadella, the ferry arrives at Son Blanc commercial port. Do not confuse it with the historic harbour in the old town. Use the terminal named in your booking confirmation for navigation and pick-up. If you are continuing to eastern Menorca, take this overland journey into account when choosing your route.
Tickets and fares
The starting fare in the booking module is loaded live. The total price only becomes clear once you enter your travel date, passenger numbers, vehicle dimensions and chosen extras. Compare the crossing time, vessel type and fare conditions for the same departure as well as the price; amendments and cancellations are governed by the selected fare.

Compare each departure individually. Fast and conventional ferries can differ in crossing time, vehicle capacity and onboard facilities. In Ciutadella, ferries use Son Blanc commercial port, not the historic harbour in the old town.

How long is the ferry crossing from Alcúdia to Ciutadella? +
The crossing time depends on the vessel and departure. Use the time shown for the specific timetable entry, as a single estimate can blur the difference between fast and conventional ferries.
