Ferry from Philipsburg to Marigot

[crazee4cruzin]

Does anyone know if there is a ferry which runs from Philipsburg to Marigot? If so, does it run every hour, 30 mins, etc. and how much does it cost? I have been reading that traffic is really heavy and we don't want to miss our departure. Thanks.

There is no ferry.

Thank you for your reply. A taxi ride it will be.

I have taken city bus to French side from one of upper streets, ask any local.

Thank you for that information. I heard that that the bus is less expensive too. Does anyone know if they are reliable? We don't want to miss our ship leaving :eek:!!!

Then use the taxis. They are not that expensive and go door to door. The bus drops you off downtown 25 minutes from the pier.

 

The bus is good if you want to interact with the people who live and work here. If you are trying to maximize your vacation time here, stick to the cabs. When staying on the island with our own rental car we always get stuck behind slow moving busses where the drivers frequently stop to chat with buddies. With a full load of passengers.
