Galveston Ferry









There is a ferry at the Galveston harbor entrance that, according to their web site, is "in lieu" of a bridge. They have several ferries and they run 24/7. Scarlett and about 40 other vehicles traveled across the harbor entrance, a distance of about 4 miles in about 20 minutes. What a gas! We took the ferry from the Port Arthur side to avoid the traffic in Houston and to save about 50 miles. We saw about 30 large freighters and numerous barges in the vicinity of the harbor. Galveston is a very busy place.
