Is there a ferry service between Dona Paula and Mormugao?

I see it in the map and written about in some websites and that's it. No further details. Does anybody have more knowledge? The same is true about the Goa/Bombay voyage. No solid info. Please enlighten.

Now that there are direct trains to Goa, I don't believe there are any ferries from Mumbai...hasn't been in many years.

Yes.

The Dona Paula ferry to Mormugao should be very much there, last I saw it was about 2 years ago, though.

Dear Captain:

Thanks very much for the info. I was rather late as I was preoccupied with some illness in the family. Where can I find more info

Thanks again

As far as I know the Dona Paula lauch service does not operate in the monsoon.

Goa-Bombay steamer service was cancelled several years ago.

There has been no ferry from Dona Paula to Vasco (Mormugao) for at least 5 years as the jetty has been unsafe. The jetty is currently being rebuilt and the whole area "beautified", but I have not heard of any plans to resume this service.
