A dealership of the maritime line between Funchal and Porto Santo decided to cancel the scheduled trips between the two islands for Wednesday due to bad weather forecasts for the Madeira archipelago, it was announced today.
On its website, Porto Santo Line refers to the cancellation of Funchal departure at 08:00 and the return of Porto Santo at 18:00 that day, considering that “they could call into question the safety of their passengers and the ship”.
The company also informs that, “to ensure alternatives”, opened extra trips on Tuesday (10 November), with the same times.
All regions of the Madeira archipelago are with yellow warning from the Portuguese Institute of the Sea and Atmosphere (IPMA) for thunderstorms, precipitation and maritime agitation.
The warning of strong maritime agitation, with forecast of waves from the west quadrant with 4 to 5 meters, runs until 06:00 on Wednesday, while the precipitation will be in effect until 18:00, with rain “sometimes strong and persistent”.
