As part of National Park Service Centennial Summer, we will celebrate the National Parks Service's 100th Birthday with a FREE FERRY DAY - this is a special one-day ferry schedule to two of the most popular Boston Harbor Islands – Georges and Spectacle Islands.
Free tickets for the Boston Harbor Cruises ferry will be distributed on a first come, first serve basis at the Ferry Center on Long Wharf-North.
No tickets will be given out at the Boston Harbor Islands Welcome Center on the Greenway or Long Wharf South ticket booth.
Free tickets are from Boston only. Hingham and Hull ferries will resume later this season.
The ticket window opens at 8:30 am. On nice weather days, all free ferry tickets are distributed before 11 am, with all of the departures listed below completely booked at that point.
Each adult in line may pick up a maximum of 4 tickets. There will be no special arrangements for groups of more than 4 to be on the same ferry.
The interisland service in/out of Boston is not available on Free Ferry Day.
