Fleet and onboard experience

The fleet includes seven Ro-Pax ferries serving the lifeline Piombino-Elba route and connections to Capraia, Giglio and Giannutri, plus one hydrofoil for fast Piombino-Portoferraio crossings. Toremar became known in 2015 as the world's first SmartFerry company, introducing free Wi-Fi and onboard multimedia totems through a partnership with the RCS group. This applies to the larger ferries on the Elba route. Onboard, most ferries offer a self-service cafeteria, indoor seating with airline-style seats, an open deck and toilets. The hydrofoil is a foot-passenger-only fast service.
