Tips & Insights:
- If you're headed to Provincetown for just a day trip, the Provincetown III gets you there in just 90 minutes, which leaves quite a bit of day for sightseeing. However, if you want to save a bit of money, and have more time in P-town, the Provincetown II gets you there in three hours, and gives you plenty of time to bask in the sun and see the bay on the way there
- Pay close attention to the departure schedule, especially if you're just heading to P-town for a day trip - ships only run so often, and not very late in the evening
- Low-cost parking is available near the ferry in Boston
- No need to pack food - there's a full-service bar plus snacks on board
- If you need it, there's dockside luggage storage on the Boston end
