Ferry Question
 
I'm taking a ferry from Salerno to Palermo. The Ferry Line that I have reservations for is Grimaldi Ferries Prestige. Does anyone know where to go to catch the ferry in Salerno. I can't find a location of the ferry departure anywhere on the site and my ticket just says when to show up. See below what was sent to me:

Thank you for booking with AFerry.to.

Here is a map: www.directferries.co.uk/salerno.htm.

FWIW: Grimaldi Ferries sails from the Porto di Salerno. The Capitaneria del Porto (port authority) is at Molo Manfredi. If you enter Molo Manfredi at maps.google.com, you should get a map that shows a dotted line for the Salerno-Palermo sailings. According to the Italian Yellow Pages, the Grimaldi Ferries office is on Via Ligea (which fits - more or less - with what maps.google shows). Grimaldi's telephone numbers in Salerno are 089 222751 and 089 231468.

Thank you.

I did see that, but I can't zoom in and see where I have to go WITHIN Salerno, i.e. street names or Pier numbers, etc. I basically just tells me that the port is in Salerno.
