Commissionning of ferries

The Territorial Community of Saint-Pierre and Miquelon is pleased to announce the commissioning of its new ferries SUROÎT and NORDET.

On May 14, 2018, SPM Ferries commissions the vessel SUROIT. With a capacity of 188 passengers and 18 vehicles, the SUROIT will replace the  Cabestan which should leave our islands at the same dates.

The ship NORDET (sister ship) will follow the path of the SUROIT a month later.

The service will start with passenger transport only at first.

These two vessels will improve the accessibility of our territory and thus facilitate transportation between the islands and with Newfoundland. With a greater number of trips, a new direct connection between Miquelon and Fortune twice a week in summer, the Territorial Community of Saint-Pierre and Miquelon strives to facilitate and improve the quality of transport offered.
