Nice–Ajaccio: what our readings show
On Nice–Ajaccio, a single company appears in our readings of 14 September 2026: Corsica Ferries. It carries every fare observed, across the four profiles we track and the single documented month of the window, September 2026. The amounts below are aggregates of dated observations, expressed either as a minimum ("from") or as an average — two distinct measures, neither of which can be deduced from the other.
September 2026, the only month recorded
For an adult foot passenger, reclining seat, the window comes down to one month: September 2026, at €41.00 as an entry fare and as an average alike, on a departure of 27 September 2026. The cheapest month and the dearest month of the window are therefore the same one, and no month-to-month comparison is possible here.
The motorised packages read on that same month and that same departure. One adult with a car and a cabin is recorded at €127.00, two adults at €157.00, two adults and two children at €203.00 — minimum and average coinciding each time. The only gap that can be read on this route is therefore the one between profiles: it is the contents of the basket, not the date chosen, that moves the total. The step from the foot passenger in a reclining seat to one motorised adult in a cabin is by far the sharpest; adding a second adult, then two children, then reads in shorter steps.
Sunday, the only departure day recorded
At this date our readings cover only one day of the week on this route, Sunday. Its average is exactly the month's: €41.00 for the foot passenger in a reclining seat, €127.00 for one adult with a car and a cabin, €157.00 for two adults and €203.00 for two adults and two children. No other weekday carries a recorded departure, which makes the day-by-day reading and the month-by-month reading strictly equivalent here: they describe the same departure.
The cheapest dates
A single departure stands out in our readings, Sunday 27 September 2026, with Corsica Ferries. It carries €41.00 on the foot passenger, reclining seat profile, €127.00 for one adult with a car and a cabin, €157.00 for two adults and €203.00 for two adults and two children. No other departure date is documented on the route, and no return trip is recorded there to date. On a route narrowed to one departure there is no good moment to pick: there is a fare, dated, or nothing.
Leaving from another port for Ajaccio
Ajaccio can also be reached from other mainland ports, at price levels that differ from one departure point to the next. Ranked by entry fare for the foot passenger, reclining seat, Toulon comes first, from €27.26 via Corsica Ferries, on a departure of 1 January 2027. Nice follows at €41.00 (departure of 27 September 2026), ahead of Marseille at €35.82 via La Méridionale (departure of 10 December 2026) and Sète at €35.00 via Corsica Ferries (departure of 29 September 2026). Marseille is the only one of these ports that our readings tie to a company other than the one operating Nice–Ajaccio.
On average, the ranking is reshuffled. Nice moves to the front at €41.00, though it was only second on the entry fare; Sète climbs to second place with €38.50, ahead of Toulon, which holds the lowest floor of the comparison yet comes back at €42.73. Marseille brings up the rear at €44.00. Those last three ports sit very close together on the average while their floors spread out: the port with the best one-off price is not the one holding the lowest everyday price, and the comparison of ports gives a different answer depending on the measure used.
What these readings cover
These prices are one-way fares, expressed as the basket total for the make-up, recorded on 14 September 2026. They cover the Nice–Ajaccio crossings of Corsica Ferries in September 2026, across the four profiles we track, along with the mainland ports recorded towards Ajaccio: Toulon, Sète, Nice and Marseille. No other company appears on the route at this date, and no other month is documented there.
