A friend suggested the Ferry as an alternative to driving to Ocean City Maryland from New Jersey. What a great suggestion. You do need to make online reservations in advance is you are traveling with your vehicle. On the website it indicated a recommended arrival 30-60 minutes prior to departure. Since this was a new experience and I lacked familiarity with the roads I arrived thirty minutes early. At the entrance gate they tell you what line to go in and then you are met by some friendly help that checks your ID against the reservation. Since it was the off season they gave me the option of boarding the next Ferry (one hour prior to my reservation) which I happily accepted. Loading was easy with plenty of people to point your in the right direction. You can wait in your vehicle but taking some steps up to the next deck gets you to comfortable seating and tables, restrooms and food. I had a pre-made breakfast sandwich which was fine. The trip took about hone hour which gives you time for relaxing or strolling the deck. Don't forget to look at the Cape May lighthouse at departure. We arrived in Lewes on schedule and were promptly unloading after some impressive "parking" by the crew. This was a great experience that I will repeat again. If it was the busy season I still would take the Ferry but would not count on being able to get on an earlier departure.

We enjoyed the ride. We each had a breakfast sandwich on the way across from Cape May to Lewes. We saved time, gas, and had a fun boat ride. We reserved a spot on board for our us and our vehicle and everything was ready to go when we arrived. We will use the ferry again.

We look forward to our Twice or more Ferry crossings on the Cape May Ferry, especially since the make over. Very good food now on and off the ferry ! So enjoyable to sit and watch the sea, birds, and coastline go by. Also to be able to go by the I95 Baltimore - Washington area safely !

We've taken the ferry many times over the past 30 years, and have always enjoyed it. It's a fun trip and makes a good "getaway" start to a vacation.

Inside the ferry you feel the motor shaking the boat. Seats are duck taped. Not worth the fee. I much prefer to drive in my comfortable car.

Good morning,
Unfortunately, yes; just as in a plane or a vehicle on the road, outside conditions can affect the smoothness of the ride.
The huge engines that power our vessels across the Delaware Bay will cause vibration in the structure of the ferry, especially when they are working against the tide and the winds.
If a tear occurs on a seat, duct tape is a temporary method to ensure that the tear doesn't spread, until it can be fixed properly. This repair work can only happen when the vessel is not sailing and is, understandably, low priority when compared to maintenance that impacts efficiency and safety. We will, however, follow up to ensure that this cosmetic issue is addressed quickly.
We hope you'll give us another opportunity in the future, but thank you for taking a break from the ordinary, to travel on board the Cape May - Lewes Ferry.
Sincerely
Customer Service

We have always had great experiences on this ferry regardless the weather or wave conditions. In our experiences, it has been rare when the waves have been a factor in our trip. The boats are clean, well maintained and staffed with very friendly crew members. The facilities at both ports are nice with the one in Cape May being larger and having more dining options in the event you get there early. There is nothing that beats this trip on a sunny day or a clear sunset evening. We recommend it for your travels.
Our only complaint is that we didn't hear an announcement for the last trip we took and wound up running to our car which was in line. Just stay aware of your time and be ready to board 15-20 minutes before the scheduled departure.
Lewes is a quaint small town with some terrific restaurants. The DART bus system runs from the Ferry through the town so if you are doing a day trip you can skip the cost of transporting your car. Cape May often has a shuttle bus that runs from the terminal to the center mall in town. Check the website and schedules.

Surprisingly good restaurant at ferry terminal, the Look Out on second floor, great water views. We had an excellant meal. approx 4 choices of seafood, meat, poultry, all were very good. Caeser salad got rave reviews. Some very cool drinks, one served in a bird glass. Do make reservations. This is a destination, not a quick meal while taking the ferry.
Lots of pumpkin decor, tic tac toe etc outside on ground level for kids.

There is no customer service — they tell you contact them via email - which I did and guess what you never get a response! Not even a generic- were sorry email - no acknowledgment at all! Complain on the ferry you just get passed around and get no where!So if that is how corporate is then I understand where the staffs attitude comes from! We took bikes to ride around the bike paths of cape Henlopen state park. We arrived very early and purchased our tickets, as this was our first time. We were directed to the loading zone where two police offers where stationed — they told us to wait there. We did - we waited and waited —- cars all started to line up. Another couple came after us with bikes too. Everyone is in air conditioned cars and we are standing with our bikes on the hot black parking lot. Two motorcycles pulled up and were directed through the cars and where flagged right on the ferry — we still waited — expecting to be next - - as we were told we would board 1st - as the bike racks are easily accessible. The ticket seller told us this - the police officer told us this. Then they started to flag the cars on — the police finally told us to go over and wait till they flag us on. We waited till all the cars, trailers, trucks where on — they pack them in there too. All in all we have been waiting for 45 minutes. We got on and I said - where is the bike racks? We just purchased two not so cheap brand new ebikes. “You can’t get to them now” - he said - “you should have gotten on first”. I said we where here waiting this whole time — the police told us to wait and no one said otherwise. The very, very, very rude gentleman and I use that term loosely said - “you weren’t where you were supposed to be.” I said well we saw you put the motorcyclist on so why didn’t we go after those two? He didn’t really know what to say at this point because he knew that I was right and we saw motorcycles get on before us proving we were there the whole time! He said “we don’t have time for this and my job is to park cars. So move out of the way” Once again I asked were where we supposed to put the bikes? He said and his exact words were “throw them on the ropes”. At that statement - I did get mad and told him these were not cheap bikes that you just throw around. He later denied he said that but the other couple confirmed that was his exact words! We placed our bikes up on the ropes — there was nothing to secure them to and we couldn’t lock them. This experience was awful and I didn’t even want to have to take the ferry back again. But didn’t have much choice. If there is no one’s job to direct bicycles and walk on’s then they shouldn’t sell tickets as such. I had a ticket and paid for my passage like the cars and should be at least treated with respect and not like an after thought or worst yet a bother and not someone’s job!? I would have given zero stars — However I am happy to report that the return trip was a totally different experience - they announced when it was time for the bikes to be put on - they let us all get on and secure our bikes in the supplied bike racks - We were on first and were able to get situated. Night and day experience —- so beware of your bringing on bikes!!

Is there a cancellation policy if we book ferry from Lewes to Cape May now? We will not be sailing until March 28. Also what are times the ferry sails from Lewes to Cape May on March 28?

Once arrived in Cape May is it bicycle friendly from the ferry terminal to the main part of town? Not looking to bring the car on a day drip. Thanks.

The Ferry lets you off a couple of miles away from the main part of the town. You will need an Uber or a Taxi to get to the main part of the town. Once you are in the core of Downtown Cape May, you can walk to everything comfortably but you will need a ride to get there.
If my pet comes over to cape May on the ferry, can she come on the shuttle to down town shopping?

No, only svc dogs are allowed on the shuttle. Ferry rules allow it so you’d have to get an alternative form of transportation to get to town with your furry friend.

Hello!
I am interested in one way trip to Cape May on our last day in Lewes. How long is the trip and what is the cost?
Thank you!

Dear Linda,
Your best bet is to call the Ferry directly 1-800-643-3779. They are open from 8-4pm and I am sure will be able to answer all your questions.
Have a good trip!
I'm planned a road trip to Ocean City, MD next month, and I'll be driving from Manhattan, NY. Is it faster for me to connect to this ferry ride, or just drive all the way Maryland?

If you are planning on driving down Route 95 via the NJ Turnpike, taking the highway straight down is quicker. The ferry is good if you are traveling from southern New Jersey and don't want to take the local highways of Southern New Jersey that can take three hours.
What is the time schedule to Lewis Delaware

Hasbrouck Heights, نيو جيرسي3,020 مساهمة
I would check their website out first because it changes based on the seasons. It really depends on when you are going to travel with them.
I need to know what time the ferry goes from Delaware to New Jersey on Friday

This depends on the weather itself. I have been on the ferry at different times of the year and I found the winter to be the roughest but only because it was so windy that day. My advice is to avoid the ferry when it looks like it is going to rain or a really windy day like recently. Still the ferry is a large vessel and I did not feel much on those rougher days.
You should be fine but just stay inside the ferry when riding over then.
Can I change my reservation for an earlier ferry
Justin W
Hasbrouck Heights, نيو جيرسي3,020 مساهمة
There are two ways to do this. You can show up earlier, like I did once and ask to go on earlier if they have space or you will have to call their number 1-800-643-3779 and ask to see if they can change it. If the weather is warm, make sure to sit outside.
