Boat departures may depend on the resort, operator, tide, weather and sea conditions. The latest departure instructions should be confirmed before the pickup time is finalised. Extra time should be allowed for the border, traffic and jetty procedures.

Before departure

  • Confirm the travel date
  • Confirm the boat operator or resort
  • Check the meeting point at the jetty
  • Keep passports and booking details accessible

Boat tickets or resort transfers are not automatically included in the private road transfer. Confirm the arrangement directly with your accommodation or boat operator.

Group travel

Choose a vehicle around passengers and bags

A vehicle should be selected using both the passenger count and the actual luggage load. A group of five or more may need an MPV or van, but the suitable option depends on suitcase sizes, cabin bags, child seats and oversized items.

Helpful luggage details

  • Number of large suitcases
  • Number of cabin bags
  • Strollers or child seats
  • Sports or beach equipment

See the private car or van group guide and available fleet types.
