Ferry questions

Is the Charlotte Amalie → Cruz Bay ferry running on my travel date?
Check the operator’s current timetable and service notices, or contact them directly. This page cannot confirm live departures, available seats or boarding arrangements.
Can I fit the crossing around a flight, ship departure or other booking?
That depends on the actual ferry service and the rides you need on either side. Confirm those, the boarding instructions and your final arrival deadline before committing. If a necessary ride or crossing is still uncertain, choose a less time-sensitive plan.
