When travelling by ferry to isle de la Madeline, is is necessary to stay overnight? Does the ferry only leave from Souris at 2:00pm? Are there no morning ferries?

Answer by:

Hello Leann,

Thank you for contacting Ask an Islander. To visit les Iles de la Madeleine, Quebec it would be necessary to stay overnight. It is an approximate 5-hour sail from the port of Souris and there is usually only one departure per day which leaves at 2:00 p.m. in the high season.

There are sometimes extra crossings during high-volume traffic times but they are not scheduled yet for the 2024 season and they leave Souris at 2:00 a.m.

I hope this helps, for more information please visit CTMA Traversier.

Regards,

Valerie
