Is Nouris El Bahr Ferries more than a fata morgana?

August 9, 2024

Nouris El Bahr Ferries?  

Indeed, the website of this unknown Algeria-based company says they will launch soon. A countdown is active.  

The shown vessel is Polferries’ CRACOVIA, currently laid up in Świnoujście, Poland. 

Nouris El Bahr, or “The Seagull”, intends to be a competitor to Algerie Ferries.  

On its Linkedin Page, the company says in French that “Our mission is to transform the maritime industry in Algeria and elevate it to an entirely new level, making every journey exciting and memorable!”.  

After Algerie Ferries suffered from multiple technical issues, with cancelled trips and laid-up vessels, and management reshuffles, irritation is growing.
