About Montenegro Lines
While some islands are now reachable by plane or are connected to the mainland with a bridge, ferries remain the only way to reach some of the most beautiful and amazing islands, hidden beaches, or other seaside destinations. Larger and slower car ferries carry vehicles and passengers around the world, but in certain cases, you will need to opt for a smaller yet faster express high speedboat or catamaran to reach your destination. While the latter does save you time, caution should be taken if you are prone to seasickness. When the sea is, rough high-speed boats which actually cut the waves are a better option than catamarans that ride the waves instead hence turning your journey into a rock-and-roll trip. To prevent or beat motion sickness, we recommend taking a special medication – consult your doctor prior to the journey. While on board, grab a seat on an open-air deck wherever possible.
Ferry trips offered by Montenegro Lines can be booked online – in an easy and hassle-free manner, without wasting your time visiting the booking office.

Montenegro Lines Ferry Types & Tickets Prices
High-speed fast ferries always hit the hardest on your pocket. If you need to save money, check whether some slower options are available on your route – usually the rates are much more affordable. It is a rule of thumb to check the length of the trip before booking. On longer routes, the difference in travel time can be huge. Note that not all ticket fares or classes are always available on any route. During peak seasons it is a good idea to make your booking in advance as the availability of more expensive private cabins is often limited. Opting for walk-in tickets on the most popular routes during these periods can result in long waiting queues. Some destinations have more than one pier or different piers for different ferry companies hence goes the recommendation to check the pier you leave from/dock at before your trip. Leave enough time before the departure to find your boat and check in. These procedures may take up to a couple of hours on international routes. Last but not least, some piers impose their own ‘pier fee’ on all arriving passengers. This fee is normally not included in your ticket price – keep this in mind.
Travel by Ferry: Pros & Cons
Pros of Ferry Travel
- Taking a ship allows you to get to some of the islands, beaches, or seaside destinations which otherwise cannot be reached. While ferry travels can be time-consuming and sometimes make you suffer from sea sickness, the possibility of visiting the most paradise, secret, off-the-beaten-track destinations they bring you to usually compensates.
- Ferry tickets can be booked online. It saves you time and secures your travel itinerary goes as planned. The advanced booking option is especially convenient when travelling during peak season periods, national holidays, or long weekends when there is high demand for tickets and on routes served by a limited number of vessels.
- On some routes, you are able to choose the class of the ticket or cabin. There are private compartments or standard cabins with a number of extras included or not. Always check the conditions of your fare to take most of your trip.
- Ferry travel is always fun. It allows you to see the places you visit or just pass by from a different angle. The majority of places look terrific – and totally different! – when viewed from the water. Sailing provides a great opportunity to shoot nice and unique pics and videos – do jump at it!
Cons of Ferry Travel
- The major concern while travelling by water is motion sickness, which is a very annoying and unpleasant thing. Even if you have never experienced it before, there is no guarantee that the next ferry trip will run smoothly as well. Rough seas and speedboat journeys can make even the strongest stomachs beg for mercy. Follow our recommendations above and take your medicine half an hour prior to your trip. Taking a light meal before travel also helps – more chances to get seasick with an empty stomach.
- Delays and cancellations are common for ferry trips as they highly depend on weather and sea conditions. It especially concerns travel during shoulder months or off-season. Rains, mossy seas, and stormy weather may interfere with your travel itinerary – try to keep it flexible and do not plan tight flight connections even during the ‘usually-good-weather’ season.

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.

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 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!!!

Ferry High Speed Ferry, Montenegro Lines, Jan 10, 2020
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.

Hubo problemas con el barco por lo que tuvieron que cambiarnos a otro agendado a la 1pm. Se tenían que hacer muchos trámites de inscripción para poder irse en el nuevo barco, además no salió a la 1 según dijeron sino hasta las 3:30 pm aproximadamente. Además el aire acondicionado casi no funcionaba lo que complicó un viaje así de lleno

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.
