The Bolivar Ferry is a beautiful way to reach this area from Galveston. During the journey, you can enjoy breathtaking views of impressive tankers and barges as they pass to and from the port and see plenty of dolphins following the shrimp boats, hoping to grab a quick meal. The ferry ride is free of charge and operates 24 hours a day. Each trip spans about 2.7 miles and takes approximately 18 minutes. You can bring your vehicle on board or walk on, depending on your plans.
