Due to a deterioration of the weather forecast and sea conditions, changes to the Scillonian III schedule have been made as below.

Wednesday 2nd August – cancelled sailings

The sailings on Wednesday 2nd August have been cancelled for the safety and comfort of all our passengers.

All passengers due to travel from Penzance (excluding day trip passengers) have automatically been transferred to Thursday’s sailing due to depart Penzance at 11:40. Check-in times are as below.

All passengers who were due to travel from St Mary’s have automatically been transferred to Thursday’s return sailing due to depart at 16:30.

You do not need a new ticket to check-in and do not need to contact us unless the new date or time is not convenient for you.

For those passengers travelling on a day trip ticket, your sailing has been cancelled and you will be entitled to a refund or to transfer your travel to another day. Our Passenger Relations team will be in touch.

Thursday 3rd August – later departure from Penzance

The scheduled Scillonian III crossing from Penzance on Thursday 3rd August will now be departing at the later time of 11:40 and will arrive into St Mary’s at approximately 14:40.

All passengers (excluding day trip passengers) due to travel from Penzance on Thursday will automatically be transferred to the later time.

You do not need a new ticket to check-in and do not need to contact us unless the new date or time is not convenient for you.

Check-in will open at 10:25 and close at 11:20.


The return sailing from St Mary’s remains unaffected.

The new later departure times make Thursday’s crossing unsuitable for day trip travel.

All day trip passengers booked to travel are entitled to a refund or to transfer their travel to another day. If you are a day trip passenger, our Passenger Relations team will be in touch.

If you have any enquires that do not relate to travel over the next 3 days, we kindly ask that you call back at a later time.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your patience and understanding.

Please keep an eye out for updates via email, our text alerts and on our Twitter travel updates page and website.
