Train
If you are in one of the Cinque Terre villages (Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, or Riomaggiore), head to the nearest train station. All the villages are connected by train. Purchase a ticket to La Spezia Centrale. The train ride takes about 20-30 minutes. Once you arrive at La Spezia, follow the signs to the city center.
Walking
From La Spezia Centrale, exit the train station and walk towards the waterfront. Follow signs for 'Molo Italia' or 'Porto'. It is approximately a 15-20 minute walk. Continue straight until you reach the harbor area where the Cinque Terre Ferries are located.
Public Transport
Alternatively, from La Spezia train station, you can take a local bus towards the harbor area. Look for buses that stop at Molo Italia. The bus ride takes about 5-10 minutes, and from the bus stop, it's a short walk to the ferry docks.
