The Ferry Landing in Port Aransas

The ferry connects Port Aransas, on Mustang Island, with the mainland via Aransas Pass on State Hwy 361 South. The 6 miles typically takes less than ten minutes, although peak summer hours may require drivers to wait longer. The ferry is FREE and operates 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, weather permitting. You are able to bring your 5th wheel or RV on the ferry. Taking the ferry is a unique experience so relax and enjoy watching the dolphins and pelicans during the short ride cause you are now “on island time!”

During periods of very low tide, the ferry ramps may be too steep for certain RVs and larger trailers. In these cases, TxDOT may temporarily restrict oversized vehicles until conditions improve. We recommend checking current ferry conditions before your trip on the TxDOT website before heading to the island.
