Bookings, Capacity, and Ticket Issuance

Tickets are not reserved, nor is there online issuance. Ferry tickets can be purchased at our offices or at the ticket counters at the port entrance well in advance, up to 60 days before the ship's departure. The ticket counters are open 2 hours before the ship's departure. Credit cards are not accepted.

The ferry to Bubaque regularly fills up in 2nd and 3rd class, so we recommend purchasing tickets in advance at our offices or at ticket vendors in the ports if you want to ensure a seat. For travelers in 1st class and foreign citizens, there is no need to book in advance as the available capacity for these classes is not usually filled.

The timetables may be affected by weather conditions, tides, accidents or matters of force majeur.
