New Horizon Ferry (Great Harbour to West End)
18° 26.6′ N · 64° 45.2′ W
The daily passenger and cargo ferry between Great Harbour and West End, Tortola, running since 2000: the easiest way for crew to join or leave, and how much of the island's supplies arrive.
Practical
Departs from the Great Harbour ferry dock (OpenStreetMap). Office hours daily 9 am to 5 pm (newhorizonferry.com). Wikivoyage gives a 25-minute crossing (fares quoted in 2019: verify locally). Soggy Dollar notes the direct USVI ferry returns from Great Harbour around 3 pm on sailing days and that USVI crossings need passports and cash for border fees. Keep the dock approach clear when anchoring or picking up a ball.
