This historic ferry is a proud survivor of a less intense automotive age. Taking only a couple of cars, bikes, and passengers at a time, the ferry provides the passenger a wonderful slow short ride during which the scenery of the port can be enjoyed.

Very reasonable rates. The line for cars is sometimes long but these people wastw no time loading and unloading. Seams like 5 mins intervals. They will take just about anything: cars,trucks, trailers, motocycles, bicycles, & people.

The Chappy Ferry is for the most part (without spending close to $200 for a OSV beach sticker and relying on bird nesting and tides) the only way for most folks to get to Enjoy the ride and take some photos on your way across as it's a unique experience.

Easy process! You can buy a ticket with a credit card at the kiosk where the ferry loads in Edgartown. We got stuck in severe weather on Chappy, so the ferry shut down for about 20 minutes, but then everything ran normally.

Three vehicles max. Great little ride, old school setup. If you pay for a round trip, they give you a laminated card that you give back to them when you re-board. Almost always a line, they have streets on the main island side that they use for queues. The staff is pleasant, but didn't say much more than was necessary.

This thing freaked me out. Everything is safe, you cars are safe, but it just gave me a panic attack having a brand new 2016 car on a little plank over a river. My heart tells me to give it a 1, but the quality of the service was a 4 or 5, so I has to oblige. If you are prone to anxiety, this might not be the best thing for you, but your car is honestly safe and it's just a short distance across. They do it pretty fast, and the locals were friendly and helped us get to where we needed to go.

It is a cute little Ferry caring a few cars, bicycles and standing people across the channel to the island. It always seems to have a line of cars waiting to cross. If you go across you need to plan your day ahead. On the other side you don't have much for stores. You really need to bring your drinks and food and whatever you need for the day with you. Just plan to pack a picnic and a cooler.

Efficient small ferry. Fast service and very easy. You can just show up and buy a ticket in cash or at the kiosk that takes credit. Car with passenger costs $13 for round trip and every other passenger costs $4. You can get on with your bicycle or just yourself. Ferry ever 5minutes but waiting in line takes more time than the ferry itself. 10-25minute wait and 5minute ferry. Only problem is the wait but other than that great everything. Would recommend if you want a nice day in chappaquiddick or edgartown. Thanks!!
