Caladesi Island Ferry

The Caladesi Island Ferry departs daily from Honeymoon Island State Park on an hourly schedule (every half hour during peak season) beginning at 10:00 a.m. (weather permitting) and the trip takes about 15 to 20 minutes. The round trip is $10.00 per adult, $5.00 for children ages 4-12 and free for children three and younger.

Passengers are allowed a four hour stay on Caladesi Island before returning to Honeymoon Island. Can you stay longer? That's the question I asked. It seems the capacity each ferry is 62 passengers and there are two ferries making the trips. So, to ensure room on a return ferry, each passenger is assigned a return time. Passengers are guaranteed a seat at that time, but are only allowed the trip on a space available basis any other time.

The Caladesi Island Connection at times has reached capacity in the middle of the day. It is advisable to call ahead to check seat availability — 727-734-1501.

No pets are allowed on the ferry.
