About Montenegro Lines

To get to the most picturesque islands you cannot avoid taking a ferry. Some destinations are served by larger and more stable car ferries, others are connected by smaller but faster high speedboats or catamarans. If you easily get seasick, avoid travelling by catamaran which rides the waves when the sea is rough – rather opt for a high speed boat as it cuts the water what results in a less rock-and-rolling trip. Also, taking a seat on an upper open-air deck may help weather high waves. Montenegro Lines offers online tickets for ferry trips – it is not even necessary to pop in at their office to buy one.

What are the Main Stations of Montenegro Lines?

Montenegro Lines ferries travel to a number of popular destinations. The list of the stations serviced by Montenegro Lines includes but is not limited to:

  • Coron Port
  • El Nido Ferry Terminal

What are the Ferry Classes & Prices of Montenegro Lines?

The rule of thumb is the faster the boat, the higher the price is. Before booking, decide whether you need an express service or slower options are also acceptable. The rates for the latter are much more affordable. Yet the difference in the travel time may be really huge, so always check how long the ferry trip takes before you book your ticket. Also, the availability of some classes can be limited and always requires advanced booking. Always remember to check the pier your boat leaves from and docks at to choose the most convenient one for your onward trip and read other travellers' reviews.

Pros & Cons of Ferry Travel

Pros of Ferry Travel

  • To take a ship is the only way to reach some of the islands. And in many cases – some of the most beautiful, postcard and paradise islands you have always wished to go!
  • Different ticket classes are often available so you will be able to choose the fare, level of comfort, travel time, and schedule which suits you best.
  • Book online to save time – on many routes, booking in advance is an absolute must. In the first place, it concerns longer trips, trips on busy periods like national holidays, long weekends or high season. It is a good idea to book at least several days prior to your travel date if your route is served by a limited number of trips per day, too.
  • Travelling by ferry is fun. It is always nice to have a look at the places you have visited from another angle – well, in this case – from water. Almost any destination looks terrific from water and you will have a great opportunity to take brilliant pictures.

Cons of Ferry Travel

  • Getting seasick is the major concern for ferry travellers. The longer is the trip and the rougher the sea is, the more chances to feel your stomach protesting. To make your trip more enjoyable, take the medicine half an hour before your trip and follow our recommendations from above.
  • Ferry trips are highly weather dependent. It means that on rainy days departures can be delayed or even cancelled. It is not an uncommon thing to close the ferry connections even with bigger islands during stormy weather for several days. It means you should keep this possibility in mind if your ferry trip connects with a flight – chances to get to the mainland later than expected can be high during certain periods.

we got seasick because the boat moved a lot. we would have preferred to have a more stable boat in order to avoid this with the possibility of going outside. Also we had a strong smell of diesel during the journey. It’s really not my best experience

Confusion reigns. Had to go to one counter to pay for ticketing. Another to put your name down only to be told to go to the office to get our tickets. Lucky we allowed an hour as there was a big queue. Seated extra people on a plastic seat. Could not go outside. Felt like a sardine in a can.

The boat was on time and luckily not much passengers. We can sit anywhere we wanted. The boat seems can withstand huge waves. Feels like being in a submarine when the boat battled with the waves and the water was leaking inside.

On time, movie on board, comfortable seats and enough space. To take into account the excessive coldness of the air conditioning.

Very windy day = very uncomfortable bumpy ride. But its cheaper than a flight so if you can withstand 4 hours of rocking waves, this is the option.

The boat trip was pleasant but it's unacceptable that there is only 1 bathroom inside (not even separated for men/women!!), there was always queue because half the boat was seasick..

Nice ferry transport. Seems we got pretty lucky with the 6am ferry as it was only rough seas for a short period of time!

The boat was on time, and not overcrowded. The voice of the television was very high, but I asked the crew and they turned it down so that we could sleep, which I really appreciated. The negative things were a small cockroach which I saw on the boat, and the fact that there was no outside area to sit.

Better than their competitor which we took from el nido to coron. Sea was very rough, literally thought we were going down at times. Take travel sickness tablets if you’re prone to sea sick, a few people threw up in their seats onto the floor

The terrible ocean waves made the journey horrible, but that’s no fault of the boat and it’s crew. Sick bags were provided for people feeling sea sick, though they weren’t handed out or available as quickly as necessary. They should made readily available for all passengers.

Made it safe, seats were comfortable, plenty of leg room, but a very unorganized check in process. Just go with the flow, and seats are assigned so you don’t have to rush to get on the boat or be first in line.

Dumb security process and super rocky ride. If you can take a flight at a comparable price, DO IT!!!

It was stinking hot in the rear section of the boat as the air conditioning was non existent. The mid and forward sections air con were fine (rows 13 and below) and this is where I spent most of the trip - sitting on the stairs. Even just a fan in the back section would make a big difference if the air con issue can't be fixed. Boat left bang on time and took about 4 1/2 hours for the trip. If you've booked online you will need to go to the Montenegro office down the street in Coron first to get your actual tickets, before going to the terminal (and paying an extra 20p terminal fee). If you suffer from sea sickness I suggest you take a tablet before the trip. Overall, the ferry is fine and the staff friendly.

Sat in a diesel fume filled box for 4 hr 45 min listening to a symphony of puking around me. Thankfully no one near us puked otherwise I may have had to join in. They either oversold the journey or someone bribed a few extra people onboard because they almost refused boarding to a few people and made them sit on the back of the boat outdoors near the toilets for the entire journey. The competing company's earlier ferry from Coron looked nicer. Would recommend thinking of travelling with them instead.

They don't accommodate families with children first. It's packed. No food or snack given even if the boat arrived 3 hours later than planned. The tickets need to be reprinted in their office outside the port even if we bought online. The terminal sucks with missing staff half the time. Inefficient staff who aren't there on time and can't explain things well but would take bribes.

There were problems with the ship so they had to change us to another one scheduled at 1pm. A lot of registration paperwork had to be done to be able to leave on the new ship, plus it didn't leave at 1pm according to what they said but until about 3:30pm. Also the air conditioning was almost not working which complicated such a crowded trip.

Ferry was almost on time (only 15 min late). The ferry is OK. You have space for legs (what is unusual in buses or vans) and seats are fine. The only very important thing to know is AirCon is SUPER HIGH AND YOU FREEZE. so don't forget to take long trouser, jacket and all the necessary clothes to don't get cold.

Departure not on time. Only 1 toilet, packed, no sales of food or drink. Arrival also late, took more than 4 hours as advertised. Even we have done online booking, but would have to still collect the ticket at the shop, which is not convenient especially travelling with big luggage.

First half of the journey was the air conditioning at max and it was freezing cold inside. Then it got better. Thanks to reviews from other people we were prepared and had warm clothes wit us, so it was not a big deal for us. Other than that the journey was all right. It took approx 5 hours
