As a cultural, commercial and administrative centre, Bari is a major ferry port in the Southern part of the Adriatic Sea. The port is used for connecting Italy with numerous destinations including Greece, Montenegro and Albania. Bari is well connected with the rest of the country by direct links with the rail and road network. Whilst the old town is typically winding and narrow, the rest of the city is elegantly laid out with its seafront promenade.
Durres is the second largest city in Albania and home to the country's most popular ferry port. Located on the west coast of the country and about 30km west of the capital city, Durres ferry port is the ideal gateway between Albania and Italy and popular with tourists and commercial traffic. This Adriatic port city has had services operated by numerous ferry companies over the years including to Ancona and Trieste but the connection with Bari seems to be the most popular.
