On the night of August 21-22, 2023, the REGINA SEAWAYS ferry was sailing from the Irish port of Rosslare to the French port of Dunkirk when it was hit by a hurricane in the Irish Sea. The height of the waves in the sea was 6-7 meters, the wind speed was 35 m/s, gusts were up to 45 m/s. The passengers on board REGINA SEAWAYS were very scared and very lucky that the ferry was going against the wave in such weather conditions.
