The 15 minute ferry ride allows visitors to enjoy the spectacular view of Penang island and serves as a reliable mode of transportation to and from the island .
Time consuming. Take the bridge if u wanna save time. But good try, bring tourist here just for the experience and nothing else.
If you are planning to catch the train service at Butterworth for south bound by 11pm .. You got to be at Penang terminal before 10pm ( for your own safety.. Catch the 9.35pm ferry )
is a good place to have some sea breeze ... throw all negative energy away but don't throw rubbish into the sea.
Suppose to catch up the train at the mainland via ferry , but the ferry din turn up since 6.30 am! Hv wait at the jetty > 1 hr! Missed my train ....
Take the CAT bus from here to KOMTAR (main part of town ) for free
Hope the government will improve the ferry intervals and purchase more ferries . This is one way to reduce traffic jams on the bridge !
Worth the ride as you can experience a beautiful sea breeze and see the Island in a different light.
great view and brings back so much memories
It's better taking ferry rather than u drive from pulau to butterworth...save fuel cost
Ferry linked-up to mainland . Great scenario of the Penang Bridge
Please cooperate and support those that do not give way to queue cutters! Do not let them cut in! Thank you very much.
Free one way from Penang to the mainland , only RM1.20 to come back! Only takes about 10mins, if you're lucky you can see jellyfish by the side of the Ferry :)
I love it so much fun with my friends

Last bus for rapid Penang at Penang sentral aka butterworth bus terminal is 10pm. You MUST catch last ferry hope by reaching island terminal at 9.30pm..catch the 9.35pm ferry .. It takes approx 20mins
You can stay on the shuttle bus for as long as you want, they won't shoo you away :D
No working ... Sit there enjoy hand phone. 😠😠😠
This ferry terminal has wifi ?! Oh... This is the LIFE!
The best view on sea I ever meet!!!
Ferry fetching me to island every time before the 1st and 2nd bridges were built...
Very nice view , good services
Don't take ferry on friday from 6-8pm, it's gonna queue up very LONG
A must-visit if you're in Penang!
Queue waiting time is too long. Faster by the bridge .
having a good trip at penang. see yaa penang. good place to visit
Try to be at Penang jetty before 7pm if you wish to have more ferry frequency. After 7pm sometime you got to wait for 30mins for each service...
ignore the ferry schedule...not following (except last ferry ) ....display only. The best time to take ferry is 7-9am, 4-7pm
Stand outside the car or roll ur windows down for safety reasons
one of the things that make Penang unique.. :)
Kids always like it
Very long que during weekends.. not for those who are in hurry.
Nostalgia, remembering the past, the transportation mode between mainland to the island .
Easy to get here and connected with bus rapid bus terminal on both side.
Peak hours a lot of passengers taking ferries going back at here.2 passenger ferries going on this few weeks.

Park your vehicle and hang out n enjoy the view :-)
Only 1 ferry in operation and have to wait 40 mins for the next ferry on weekend >.<
The oldest ocean transport- ferry in Penang. Without this, many people will not be travel from Penang island to Mainland so easy
