East by West Ferries cease Mātiu Somes service for 6-8 months

Mātiu Somes Island

East by West will not be operating services to Mātiu/Somes Island from 19th February 2024 for 6 – 8 months while the wharf is rebuilt. This means our weekday and weekend timetables will change from the 19th February as we will not be stopping at the island. We have not received a date for the island reopening but we will communicate this to everyone as soon as we’re able to. Services will still be running as usual right through to the 18th February so there’s still time to head out to the island over the next few weeks!
