Porto Santo... is right around the corner!

Information – Ship Maintenance:

We would like to inform you that the vessel Lobo Marinho will begin its annual maintenance at the start of 2026. Its last voyage will take place on Monday, 5 January, departing from Funchal at 08:00 and returning from Porto Santo at 12:00. The estimated downtime period is approximately five (5) weeks.

Passenger Transport for Porto Santo Residents During the Docking Period:
During the vessel’s immobilisation period, and although not legally required to do so, PSL will ensure air transport between the islands exclusively for residents of Porto Santo who are registered on the SIMplifica platform of the Regional Government of Madeira (as required by the airline), and only on flights originating from that island. Up to 50 seats per day, per route will be made available, totalling 100 seats (except on Tuesdays).

Cargo Transport:
As in previous years, PSL reaffirms its commitment to guaranteeing the regular transport of goods between Madeira and Porto Santo, ensuring the continuity of operations and supporting the needs of local businesses.

Weekly Calls:
In compliance with contractual requirements, we will maintain the weekly call of a container ship on Tuesdays, except in exceptional circumstances.
Additionally, and without legal obligation, PSL will provide a second weekly call on Fridays, dedicated to the transport of perishable goods, fresh or dry, also subject to exceptional cases.

Free Storage:
To mitigate potential logistical challenges, we will provide dry and refrigerated containers at Porto Santo port, ensuring free storage for traders, as in previous years.
