Cape May-Lewes Ferry

A very good option to go to ocean city if you are traveling from NJ … kids liked it too. It is about an hour and 15 mins sail from cape May to Ocean city MD . Easy booking … costed ok - we paid about 37$ for our van and 10$ per person .

Ferry had lots of seats inside and outside the deck . I really liked the push back seats 💺.. very comfortable . They also have a gift shop and a small cafe with coffee and some snacks . There is also a bar on the 2nd floor. Very organized . Very comfortable . Had to wait an hour to board .. restaurants inside the ferry terminal weren’t that good . Overall a good experience…

My wife and I were heading out to take the Ferry the morning of October 11th 2023. We arrived early and were waiting to board. Then our morning took an unexpected turn, I passed out. Frantically my wife called for help, and folks from the port were there in moments. EMS arrived and got me stable again. I had never passed out before. My blood pressure had crashed. I didn’t want to go to the hospital (what guy does?). I wanted to try to eat and catch the next ferry. But when my pressure dropped to 81/54 about 30 minutes later, my wife convinced me that I should go to the hospital. Heath Gehrke, from the port drove us to the hospital with in minutes. Then made arrangements for the police to pick us up when the hospital released me. Officer Kyle was there waiting for us and brought us back to the port. These amazing men as well as others at the port were simply amazing and so helpful, I felt so blessed to be in such a place that where the scariest moments of our trip, we were lifted up and provided for above and beyond anything we expected.
The next morning we boarded the first Ferry, and the experience was wonderful. These folks know how to run a ship, but mostly they know how to care for their customers. I would highly recommend the Lewes Ferry.
My only regret, I should have gotten a picture of my wife and I in the police car! That would have been a fun story to our grandkids.

Great service to and from Cape May / Lewes! Dog friendly! Very clean! Has a snack area and clean bathrooms! 85 mins. Great trip!
