I ride the ferry every day to/from work and have to give KUDOS to the staff ... they are friendly & full of smiles.... say thank you to them every once in a while... make their day better !!

Victor Peralez

Free, dolphin viewing , expect long waits during holidays, extra security, encountered a homeland security check memorial day weekend.

Do yourself a favor and check the Ferry Schedule, or call the number to ask about wait times:http://www.txdot.gov/travel/ferry_schedules.htm

Christie Mott

Park your car and walk on. No wait time and can go and stay on to come back instead of waiting both ways. Work it!

The free ferry service provided by TxDOT is the only way motorists can cross the waterway between Bolivar Peninsula and Galveston Island .

Tricia

Look around....you may get to see dolphins swimming by the ferry !!! Pretty cool!! :)

Charmayne Redd

Call 409-795-2230 for the status of the ferry , they will tell you if there is a wait to get on and how long the wait may be.

Josh Hebert

Walk onto the Ferry instead of drive. It's quicker to get on and off, plus it's romantic . Bring bottled water. There are restrooms and benches upstairs in the pax area

Clint

Fun way to see part of the island from the water

Renea Mueller

If your an idiot and cut in front of people that have waited in line like you're supposed to be prepared to be honked at, cussed at and get a $500 ticket. Spring break weekend is max fines, Jerks!

Jennifer Manriquez

Do not try to drive up the right lane and cut in line . The police give tickets for that. We saw 4 people trying to slip in line and the police pull them over. Just wait like everyone else.

Jake Aycock

Don't have anything on you that you shouldn't have, they be searching. Lookin at your inspection sticker too. #haters

Thomas Hucksoll

Get out of your car and ride up on the front - you might see dolphins playing in the water.

Man that cop in those short shorts pulled us over for cutting in line , man!! Some wiggers drove by in a vert mustang, they'd gay.
