The Galveston-Port Bolivar ferry takes travelers on SH 87 between Galveston Island and the Bolivar Peninsula. The service is free, and it was easy even with our 37ft travel trailer!
At any given time, one vessel is in operation 24 hours a day. Additional vessels are added when needed, during peak hours and holidays.
If you have the chance to do this with your RV, I say go for it. Save time on your drive and let someone else clock the miles for you!
Vehicles should not exceed 80,000 pounds and have a maximum length of 65 feet, a maximum height of 13.5 feet, and a maximum width of 8.5 feet.
