Puerto del Rosario to Las Palmas de Gran Canaria Ferry: Overnight Boat

The ferry from Puerto del Rosario to Las Palmas is an overnight line run by Baleà ria Canarias. It leaves the capital of Fuerteventura and arrives at the port of La Luz, in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. It does not sail every day of the week.
The crossing is long, several hours, and the ship has seats and cabins with a bathroom. It is not the option for a day return: for that there is the fast boat from Morro Jable to Las Palmas.

Boarding at Puerto del Rosario
Puerto del Rosario is the capital of Fuerteventura, on the east coast. From there there is a road to the airport and the rest of the island; Morro Jable is at the southern tip and Corralejo in the north, several dozen kilometres away. If you are coming from the south or the north of the island, allow for the road before boarding. We have no public transport data to the port.
With a car, arrive with a margin over the 40 minutes before boarding closes.
Arrival at the port of Las Palmas
You arrive at the port of La Luz, in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Baleà ria has a free Ferry Bus on some departures, between the Nelson Mandela Quay / La Esfinge and the Fundación Puerto de Las Palmas Office; pets cannot use it. If you are continuing to Tenerife, the boat to Santa Cruz leaves from the same port.
Documents for the Puerto del Rosario Las Palmas ferry
Valid identity document for each passenger and, with a car, vehicle registration document, technical data sheet and insurance. With a pet, an up-to-date health card.
I Love Ferry tips for the overnight boat to Las Palmas
- Check that your date has a boat. It does not sail every day and, in the opposite direction, it sails on other days.
- Cabin if you are sleeping, upper seat if not. The standard seat for a whole night is tiring.
- Take up to your cabin what you need. Once under way the car deck cannot be accessed.
- If you are coming from the north or the south of the island, allow for the road before boarding: Puerto del Rosario is far from Corralejo and Morro Jable.
- For a day trip, the fast boat from Morro Jable is better.
