Free”. Great views of the bay. Watch large ships with cargo and cruise ships come and go from the Gulf of Mexico. Lots of birds. Mostly, Seagulls, black birds, and watch for the Dolphins. Bring the birds something to eat. This is a must do. Sunsets are beautiful. I’ve never been during the sunrises, but I’m sure it’s glorious.

Waiting up to 3 hours on both sides during peak season to take your vehicle across. Recommend first thing in the morning if you want to take your car across. Walk on and bike on without having to wait. Just drive on the right side of ferry road, you’ll see the line of cars waiting to get on on the left. Park at the terminal, walk on or bike on. Usually see dolphins, ships, and other sights, roughly 30 min ferry ride each way. Free!
