About Marine Atlantic
Marine Atlantic’s mission is to provide a safe,
environmentally responsible, and quality ferry service between the
Island of Newfoundland and the Province of Nova Scotia in a reliable,
courteous and cost-effective manner. To that end, the Corporation
provides ferry services on two routes. The first is a year-round, 96
nautical mile daily ferry service between Port aux Basques, Newfoundland
and Labrador and North Sydney, Nova Scotia. The second, offered from
mid-June until late September, is a 280 nautical mile tri-weekly ferry
service between Argentia, Newfoundland and Labrador and North Sydney,
Nova Scotia.
Marine Atlantic is a Crown corporation, and is committed to safety and
environmental responsibility. Our head office is located in St. John’s,
Newfoundland and Labrador.
We’ve made some changes recently: new vessels, new amenities, and a new
look. But what we haven’t changed is our commitment to top-quality,
reliable and courteous service for our customers. We look forward to
sharing your journey with you.
