When the weather influence might be significant for your ferry ride
High Winds on the route
Sustained winds of 35–40 knots (65–75 km/h) or gusts exceeding 50 (90+ km/h) can cause significant issues for ferry rides. The size of the vessel, however, is very important since larger and more modern vessels can easily withstand heavy winds.
Large Waves, Storms and Extreme Weather
Severe weather events, such as hurricanes, typhoons, or deep low-pressure systems, can make ferry travel impossible. These are easy to spot on our live weather maps!
