In light of anticipated severe sea conditions, ferry services in Montserrat are set to be temporarily suspended for the upcoming week, with the hope of resuming on Saturday, January 27th. The decision comes as the waters surrounding Montserrat are expected to become increasingly rough, posing risks to sea travel.
The last ferry service departing from Montserrat for the week will take place tomorrow, Monday, January 22nd, at 10:00 am. Following this departure, the ferry will seek shelter in Antigua for the duration of the week until the sea conditions subside. This precautionary measure aims to ensure the safety of both passengers and crew members.
Customers planning to travel out from Montserrat on Tuesday are urged to adjust their plans and utilise the last departure on Monday at 10:00 am. Travellers, both incoming and outgoing, are advised to reassess their plans for the coming week in light of the temporary suspension of ferry services.
The Access Division extends sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused by this disruption to travel plans. Emphasising the commitment to passenger safety, the decision to halt ferry services is a precautionary step to mitigate potential risks associated with the anticipated rough seas.
Regular updates regarding the resumption of ferry services will be provided, with the optimistic expectation of returning to normal operations on Sunday, January 28th. Passengers are encouraged to stay informed and plan accordingly, prioritising safety during this period of temporary service suspension.
