OPERATING REGION

VESSEL DESCRIPTION

The VOLCAN DE TINDAYA is a Spanish-flagged Ro-Ro passenger ferry built in 2003 at the Barreras Shipyard in Vigo, Spain. The vessel takes its name from the iconic Tindaya Mountain located in Fuerteventura, Canary Islands, consistent with the naming convention of the Naviera Armas fleet, which traditionally names vessels after Canarian volcanoes and geographical landmarks.

Designed primarily for short-to-medium range inter-island ferry services within the Canary Islands archipelago, the vessel is equipped to carry both passengers and wheeled cargo/vehicles, making it a critical transportation link for residents, tourists, and commercial freight across the islands.

Operating under the Naviera Armas group — one of Spain's leading ferry operators — the Volcan de Tindaya serves routes connecting the major Canary Islands and maintains compliance with Spanish maritime authority and EU maritime regulations.
