Harwich Port fast ferry

Hello all,

Does anyone have recommendations, pro or con, for the Freedom Cruise Line fast ferry service from Harwich Port to Nantucket? We will be staying close by in Dennis this August and had a terrible time fighting traffic and finding parking the last time we took a ferry trip out of Woods Hole, (to Marthas Vineyard). We took a ferry from Hyannis to Nantucket many years ago but dont recall the crowds. Thanks.

Parking is free for the day at Saquatucket Harbor and this is the cheapest fast ferry. No crowds at all, but you pay for all this convenience of course.

The crowds in Hyannis are fierce. We still go there though if we don%26#39;t want to spend the money in Harwich Port. It is just so much easier to leave from Saquatucket: worth the money most of the time.

So much easier to go from Harwich. We were just saying today that we think we wil go over again in September, but definitely not from Hyannis.

Much easier going outta Harwich. Not sure if you know where Brax Landing Restaurant is but the boat leaves from right next door. Ticketing/info booth is right across the street. My Dad %26amp; his girlfriend went over to Nantucket last year from there and had a great time :-)

Have fun!

Naomi :-)
