Ferry to Provincetown or Salem
Options
When booking, you can choose the ferry to Provincetown or the ferry to Salem. Both depart from Long Wharf in Boston. Here are the details of each:
Ferry to Provincetown
Located at the tip of Cape Cod, Provincetown is one of those places that exudes peace and good energy. If you don't want to be told about it, this ferry from Boston will get you there in just 1 hour 30 minutes - the quickest way!
Departing from Long Wharf, you'll board a powerful catamaran with an indoor and outdoor deck for a pleasant crossing of Cape Cod Bay until you reach MacMillan's Wharf.
Once there, you can spend as much time as you like exploring the town, visiting the craft shops, climbing the steep dunes, relaxing on the beach at Herring Cove and strolling along the bike paths as you take in the beautiful scenery with the Atlantic Ocean in the background.
Of course, one of the must-see sights is the Pilgrims' Monument, a huge granite statue no less than 77 metres high built in honour of the pilgrims who came from Europe and helped the area develop commercially.
The ferry to Provincetown leaves daily at 9 am and 2 pm.
Ferry a Salem
If you want to visit one of the most witchcraft-related cities in the world, the ferry to Salem from Boston is what you've been looking for. It's 28 metres long and has two decks so you can choose which area of the boat you'd prefer to enjoy the crossing.
With your ticket, you can board a comfortable ferry at Long Wharf and sail across Massachusetts Bay to reach the city of Salem. The journey will take just 50 minutes - the quickest way to get there!
Once there, you'll have all the time you want to explore the witches' town at your leisure. You can visit the Witch Museum, stroll along the famous Salem Walkway, learn about history and art at the Peabody Essex Museum, see the House of the Seven Gables and even visit the old Salem Port Customs House. The town is full of super cool places!
