Lanrry PARRAISLA MUJERES, 16 de octubre.-
Hundreds of fishing and tour boats were unable to work after the port was closed for small boats due to the prevailing weather conditions. The Harbor Master, Ismael Gonzalez Gil, confirmed that the port was closed for small boats since 8pm on Thursday due to waves and wind. This was continued on Friday and is expected to continue on Saturday, since more rain is forecast for this weekend.
The ferries have continued to run, and there are no plans to cancel the service, although an accident occurred regarding the navigation of one of the ferries on Thursday night due to weather conditions.
