Montserrat Ferry To Run Daily

Deluxe ferryFerry service between Antigua and Montserrat will operate daily beginning next week. The Government of Montserrat announced that it had received confirmation from the Caribe Queen ferry operator that the service will run from Monday to Saturday, December 13 – 18.

According to a statement from Access Coordinator Vincent Hippolyte, “the service will continue daily but will alternate between the Caribe Queen (127 passengers) and Deluxe (70 passengers) through the season and until further notice."

The schedule will be as follows:

Daily departure from  Montserrat  - 7:00 am

Daily departure from Antigua  -  5:30 pm

There will be no ferry service on Sundays.


“The ferry will be flexible and depart later than 5:30 pm, subject to the captain’s decision about safe sea conditions, on Wednesdays and other days to accommodate the late incoming UK flights,” the release said.

The cost of passage one way is $150 for adults and $75 for children.

A noble effort but who can afford this? I think I'd rather fly.

I am thinking that it would be best to have an early trip to Montserrat from Antigua then return around 4:30pm then cater with the late trip for persons coming in on the flights to go to Montserrat. With this schedule doenst seems like the ferry is catering to persons wanting day trips.

no 'day trip" from Antigua

It would have been nice if one could have made a "day trip" to Montserrat from Antigua. Based on the schedule published in the article it is not possible. It is possible to make a "day trip" from Montserrat.
