Mount Closure

The atmospheric and tidal conditions forecast for Friday (11/10/2024) mean that the causeway will not uncover as predicted in the afternoon. The recent stormy seas have also filled in the channel to our Chapel Rock landing with sand, and so the ferry boats will not be able to operate for long at that landing. We have therefore had to take the difficult decision to close the entire island early.

First Castle admissions will be at 10:00. Last Castle admissions will be at 14:30. The island will close at 16:00.

If you have a ticket booked for after 14:00, please arrive before 14:00 to guarantee access to the Castle. You do not need to rebook but can turn up and use your existing tickets.

We are sorry if this means you cannot visit. Any tickets that are not used will be refunded in full automatically at the beginning of next week and we expect monies to be returned to the accounts from which payments were made within 5-7 business days.

We are a tidal island that is governed by the forces of nature and sometimes those elements work against us.

We hope to be able to welcome you onto St Michael’s Mount soon.

Warmest wishes,

The St Michael’s Mount team
