The Assateague Island Ferry

Ready to trade crowded beaches for wild beauty? Hop aboard our ferry from Ocean City to Assateague Island—a breezy boat ride that delivers you straight to a magical world of peace, quiet, and playful dolphins dancing in the surf. Leave the boardwalk bustle behind and discover wide-open beaches where wild horses roam and nature takes center stage. It’s not just a trip—it’s an escape to a beach that feels like it’s all yours.



Departure Location - This trip departs from our Downtown OC location at 307 Dorchester St, Ocean City, 21842 promptly at the scheduled times (usually 4x each day), and you can signal to the captain when you would like to return during your trip (and even change your mind and get a ride back sooner!) 

 

Assateague Island – If you want to get off on Assateague and spend the day until our afternoon pick up you will disembark in shallow water (less than 2 feet) and get your feet wet. 

 

Bathrooms – Our Bay Hoppers do not have bathrooms onboard. 

 

What To Bring – Things to consider bringing include sunscreen, drinks, snacks, a towel, a beach chair, a sweatshirt, and a camera. 

 

Weather – Unless the weather poses a threat to the safety of our passengers (e.g., lightening, high winds) or the weather will make the trip extremely uncomfortable (e.g., heavy rain) the trip will proceed as scheduled.  If the Captain decides to cancel the trip due to the weather, then you will be notified, and your money refunded.
