This was my first time taking the ferry to LI, and I must admit, it was much better than driving all the way through CT, down to the Bronx, Throgs Neck Bridge, and back out the island to my destination. The ride was a bit choppy, but would most definitely take the ferry again! Car and two of us was... More

It's was a weekend so thought it would be a wait to get on a ferry but just turned up, payed about $65 for car and 2 adults and off we went. Thoroughly nice trip and beats driving.

Went to Long Island for weekend wedding, and the ferry was great. We made reservations in advance, and were there plenty early to board ferry. Ferry was very prompt going to and from. We arrived early on way home, and were on standby for the 3pm boat, and ended up being switched to that boat versus waiting for 4pm, which... More

On my way from Mass. to Long Island, I decided to take the ferry from CT to Orient Point. I have taken many vehicle ferries in Europe, but this was my first in the states.

It is practically a transportation no glamor or atmosphere, it is good for that. Don't expect much, it is -after all- the only option you have to cross the sound. The best part is looking out the windows and enjoying the ride. Food, not impressive, just a chow!

So I travel three times a month on the ferries all year long . I normally have no issues only when its busy and then it seems no one knows what is going on. Busy weekends are a big problem on the off season I have the priority pass and some how don't end up off first so why do... More

On-time arrival, smooth sailing and a wonderful sunset over LI Sound. Bring your own food, but they do have full bar service.
