Arrivals and departures AIS-detected
Ships Seadar detected in port from their AIS positions: who is in port now and who left in the last 48 hours. Calls shorter than 30 minutes are not shown, and at places without a charted harbour only ships with an IMO number count. Times UTC.

Ships whose AIS destination names Montreal, with the arrival time their crew entered. Reported in the last 24 hours, due within 7 days. Crews type these by hand: a destination can be out of date and an ETA can slip.

Arrivals per day AIS-detected
Ships Seadar detected arriving at Montreal on each of the last 30 days (UTC), counted once per ship per day. A day with no bar had no detected arrivals, which can also mean a gap in our AIS coverage.

Montreal: daily port calls from satellite AIS (IMF PortWatch)
Estimates published by the International Monetary Fund's PortWatch, built from satellite and terrestrial AIS. They cover waters our own receivers do not reach yet. These are the IMF's figures, not Seadar's counts.
The IMF estimates 22 port calls in the 7 days and 109 in the 30 days to Sep 25, 2026. That is 22% more than the same 30 days a year earlier (89).
- Container
- 42
- Tanker
- 17
- Dry bulk

- General cargo
- 15
- Ro-ro

Estimated cargo loaded and discharged in those 30 days: 0.6 million tonnes.
