The Steamship Authority terminal at Woods Hole is the only ferry on the East Coast that carries passenger vehicles to Martha's Vineyard. That single fact makes Woods Hole the most schedule-sensitive Cape Cod transportation destination we serve — boarding cutoffs are firm, the village is small, parking is tight, and missing your reservation means waiting hours for the next available slot. Boston Limousine's car service to Woods Hole Ferry is built around that reality.
The route from Boston Logan to Woods Hole runs 80 miles via I-93 South to Route 3 South, over the Bourne Bridge onto MA-28 South. Off-peak drive time is 1 hour 30 minutes; on summer Fridays after 2 PM, allow 2 hours 20 minutes.
The drop-off point is the Steamship Authority passenger terminal at 19 Railroad Avenue, Woods Hole, MA 02543 — a 4-minute walk to the ferry gangway. Vehicles cannot drive directly to the dock; passengers walk the last 200 yards from the terminal to the boat. Your chauffeur unloads luggage curbside at the drop-off zone.
Woods Hole is home to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) and the Marine Biological Laboratory. Parking at the ferry terminal fills by 7 AM in summer; this is one of the main reasons travelers choose car service to Woods Hole Ferry over driving themselves.
The return trip is straightforward: ferries arrive at the Woods Hole terminal, foot passengers walk off, and your chauffeur is waiting in the passenger pickup zone with a sign showing your name. We track ferry arrivals and adjust for weather delays automatically.
Our Lincoln Town Car sedans handle 1–3 passengers comfortably. For families and wedding parties heading to the Vineyard, our Chevy Suburban SUVs carry 6 passengers plus luggage.
