Bermuda Ferry Service

Bermuda Ferry Services

I had mentioned under Bermuda Bus Services that the Bermuda transportation passes are valid for both Bermuda ferry and buses. The transportation pass probably turns out to be the cheapest option and the most convenient.

So with a $45 weekly pass, you can have unlimited use of both Bermuda ferry and bus services for seven days.

The one-day transportation pass costs $12, two-day $20 and 3-day pass $28. You can also buy a card of 15 transportation tickets for $30.

However, if you want to pay for a single trip, a Bermuda ferry ride costs $4.50 for adults. Find out where you get the Bermuda Transportation Passes, Tickets and Tokens

So where do you take the Bermuda ferry from and where does it take you?

Bermuda ferry services mainly operate from and to the Hamilton Ferry terminal.

This terminal is at the Front Street Harbor. You can buy your passes or tickets at the ferry terminals.

Bermuda ferry services take you to the east of the island (St George Bermuda) or to the west (Kings Wharf/Dockyard).

If you want to go to the west-end at Kings Wharf dockyard from Hamilton city, the ferry can be a lot faster than the bus or any other transport in Bermuda. A direct Bermuda ferry from Hamilton to the dockyard will take about 20 minutes compared to about an hour by a Bermuda bus.

There is no direct ferry from Hamilton city to St. George at the east end. You will need to first go to the west end (at Kings Wharf Dockyard) and then to St. George. The whole journey will take over an hour including the wait time at the dockyard. The bus from Hamilton to St George takes one hour.

Bermuda Ferry Routes

The ferry lines that connect various points in Bermuda are as follows:

PINK ROUTE: This a short Bermuda ferry service from Hamilton city to the small docks in Warwick and Paget parishes. The points covered from Hamilton City are Darrell's Wharf, Belmont Ferry Stop, Hodson's Ferry Stop, Salt Kettle, and Lower Ferry Stop.

BLUE ROUTE: Hamilton to west-end Kings Wharf Dockyard. Sometimes the ferry will go via Cavello Bay and Watford bridge.

ORANGE ROUTE: Hamilton to Kings Wharf Dockyard at the west (about 20 minutes) and then from Dockyard to east-end St. George (35 minutes). This can be a great cruise along the north-shore. Since there are no great beaches on Bermuda north-shore, you won't probably plan to go there otherwise. This therefore becomes an opportunity to view the Bermuda northern coast line. However, this ferry line generally operates during the summer season only (mid April to mid November).

GREEN ROUTE: Hamilton to Rockaway Ferry Stop at Southampton parish (30 minutes)

There is also a direct ferry between St George and Hamilton which leaves St George in the morning and comes back in the evening. This is normally used by the workers and office goers who come to Hamilton City for work and go back in the evening.

In addition to the normal ferry boats, there are high-speed catamarans servicing the longer routes to Dockyard and Rockaway, as well as St. George in summer. Each boat is modern and comfortable, with a capacity of 200 or more passengers. The catamarans carry cycles at a cost of $4.

Ensure that you have purchased your tickets, tokens or passes in advance since cash is not accepted in ferries. Contact 441/295-4506 for further information on Bermuda ferry.
