Tomorrow Malta is bound to be hit by a strong polar cyclone, nicknamed Thor, meaning that the sea will be extremely rough.

Virtu Ferries have taken to social media to announce that two of their trips between Malta and Pozzallo, Sicily will be cancelled on Friday 20th January “due to unfavourable sea conditions”.

The ferry departing from Malta at 6am together with the ferry departing from Pozzallo, Sicily at 9:15am will still go ahead as planned.

However, the trip departing from Malta to Pozzallo at 5pm and the other ferry ride leave Pozzallo at 8:30pm are both cancelled.
