What you need to know about the crossing
Table of Contents
Getting to the terminal
The Port of Barcelona has several ferry terminals. GNV and Trasmed may check in at different quays, so follow the terminal on your booking confirmation rather than relying on the route name alone. If you are driving, follow the port signs from the Ronda Litoral.
Check-in
Under the operators' published rules, Trasmed check-in closes 60 minutes before departure for vehicles and 30 minutes before departure for foot passengers. GNV asks passengers to arrive earlier; check-in closes 30 minutes before departure. Allow for the deadline set by your selected operator and confirm it on your ticket.
Keep your photo ID and boarding pass handy. If you are travelling with a vehicle, its type, length and height, including attachments, must match the booking.
On board
Seats, reclining seats, cabins, and food and drink differ by operator and vessel. A cabin is only confirmed if it can be booked for your specific departure. Take everything you need during the journey into the passenger area, as access to the vehicle deck may be restricted during the crossing.
Vehicles, bicycles and pets
Cars, motorcycles, motorhomes, trailers and bicycles are departure-specific booking options. Enter their full dimensions. Pets must also be included in your booking; accommodation and accessible areas depend on the operator and vessel.
Arrival and onward travel
Mahón is in eastern Menorca. The harbour extends deep into the bay; your booking will give the exact terminal and any pick-up instructions. If you are staying in the west of the island, allow for the additional overland journey when deciding whether to choose Ciutadella instead.
Tickets and fares
The starting fare is shown live and depends on the travel date, operator, passengers, vehicle, accommodation and fare. Compare Trasmed and GNV by actual crossing time and selected services as well as price. Cancellations and amendments are subject to the conditions of the specific fare.
Route and port
Direct from Barcelona to eastern Menorca
Barcelona-Mahón runs to eastern Menorca and is served by Trasmed and GNV. Many travellers choose it for its direct arrival in the east, but departure time, crossing time and vessel must be checked for the specific date.
Compare the two operators departure by departure. Terminal, check-in, cabin and pet options can differ. If you are travelling to western Menorca, also consider the separate Barcelona-Ciutadella port pair.
