How to get around on the Giglio Island?

On the island of Giglio, the simplest way is to take the bus between Giglio Porto, Giglio Castello and Giglio Campese : the line serves these three villages, with about 14 minutes to Castello and 27 minutes to Campese from the port. The one-way ticket costs around 2,50 € ; bought on board, it can be more expensive. Timetables change according to the season and the day of the week, and buses run less frequently in the off-season: check them before planning a connection or a late outing.

For less accessible beaches, the bus is not always enough: Cannelle is reached on foot or by taxi, while some coves can be served by water taxi in season. The roads are hilly; cycling therefore requires some effort, especially in the heat. A car is generally not necessary to connect the villages, and access for non-residents' vehicles is subject to restrictions at certain times, especially in summer. If you come with your own vehicle, check the current rules before booking the ferry.
