Every time we've ridden the ferry, they've been on time. Very reasonable prices. The views of Portland harbor are glorious.

Definitely take a trip to Peaks Island via the ferry. Plan for a 3 hour trip at minimum. Great for adults with outdoor bars and live music. Golf cart and bike rentals are plentiful.

Best $4.10 I spent in Portland! We took the ferry over to Peaks Island and the experience was a delight. From entering the clean, bright ferry terminal, to the friendly, efficient ticket seller, to the well maintained ferry boat itself, the whole trip was fun and easy! Oh, and punctual too! Great views of Portland and a few islands. Would def recommend if you want an inexpensive experience on the bay/harbor.

We took the ferry to Peaks Island. Wonderful. You get tickets at the booth - adults are $7.50, children $3.50. They are very organized, tho definitely not on time - the 15:15 was late (by 20 minutes). First, the cars board, then the people who live on the island, then everyone else. Go to the top you should find seats. The ride itself is about 20 minutes and can get cold. Take a sweater. On the island, you can rent bikes, golf carts etc...we didn't do any of that. Walking around was really fun we found a rocky beach that we explored and some lovely people who live on the island (in the summer). The ride back was a bit more crowded, but still very pleasant. Take a schedule when you get your tickets too and pack a snack , especially if you are with kids

Questions & Answers

Why do I have to arrive early and act like a tourist to be able to take in the views of a working dock??? Sounds like a derogatory statement against tourists that flood this state with money...Bad review...

This was in reference to a prior review ...not the service . A statement about arriving early and acting like a tourist was a bit derogatory towards tourist.Its a ferry station...not Acadia NP

The boat to peaks island takes 15 min and runs almost every hour. The boat out to the other islands takes an hour or so to get to the further islands
