GETTING TO
THE ISLAND

The FERRY

Welcome to Château Nighthawk!

 

Here are some travel details to most fully enjoy your trip.

 

!!MAKE FERRY RESERVATIONS RIGHT AWAY!!

 

If the reservations are full then wait 30 days prior to your sailing and more reservations become available to book.

 

The ferry’s do get full in the summer, and it is not unreasonable to wait 5-8 hours in a standby line.

You will want to make a reservation both arriving and departing the island. You will need to arrive at least 30 minutes prior to the departure.

 

Ferry Fairs

The ferry drive on fee is $53.70 for the car and first person. $13.25 per additional passenger (Senior and children pricing is offered). This price includes your return trip to the mainland.  The ferry ride is 60-90 minutes depending on which islands it stops at along the way. You will only be charged a ferry fee going from the mainland to the island. However, you still need to make reservations for your departure from the island to the mainland.
