Does anyone have suggestions on how to get to Sicily from Sorrento, Italy?

The overnight ferries are HORRIBLE. Do not take them. They are full of dirty, smelly, loud gutter punks, vagabonds & gypsies and you will get no sleep, and you will arrive exhausted and irritated. I foolishly did this once, so I am warning you against it.

I recently drove from Rome to Aciriale in Sicily. I did this in less than a day, so going from Sorrento will be a piece of cake. Drive, and enjoy the beautiful scenery at your own pace. I warn you that the highway is awful (lots of construction), but it's still fun. You (obviously) have to take a quick ferry from the mainland to Messina, but it is cheap and easy and you can stay in your car or get out and watch-it's a short distance.

If you can't drive, then take the train. It's pretty cheap. If you want speed, you will need to take a flight from Naples (also not very expensive). But DON'T take the overnight ferry. You will regret it.
