They run these ferries so smoothly. It’s a well oiled machine! And the ride is smooth!

Orient Point is far more expensive than other ferry’s. You’d think charging $114 for a car + 2 adults would allow enough money for a decent website. NOPE. I went to book a reservation. The websites said they were 3 car spots left. In the 30 seconds it took to check out, all of a sudden it’s sold out. This is AFTER I put in my credit card information. The website is slow & looks like something an 8th-grader would create in their graphic design class. The Bridgeport to Port Jefferson ferry is better.

Questions & Answers

can i take my dog

Bruce Hoffner | Oct 1, 2018
David Woodbury | Oct 1, 2018

Yes you can take your pet. Cats have to go in carriers . Dogs on leashes . Leashes I recommend you have attached to your self and to dog . I would recommend keeping a close eye on your dog. Some people are alegick to pets . Some people do not want dogs jumping on them. Ct State law says you have to be able to hold your dog back when dog is pulling hard. One last thing before you go on ferries walk and give your dog some water. Also be kind to your pet. A lot of family member in my family have pets. One last thing I am not shore about laws for dogs in N.Y.
