Great experience overall. Took the SunRunner down from the beaches (drops off a few blocks away). Pre bought tickets and added to my Apple Wallet for quick access (nice feature) but you can buy tickets day off at the booth. Wouldn’t recommend though as there’s limited availability.
We took the Ferry over for a Lightning Game on a Monday (limited runs on some days just for the games).
Drinks on board were $9 for most beers and $16 for liquor doubles. Not terrible, but surprising. Had a few snack like items to purchase on the boat too.
Lots of seating options. We got on quick so we could have a little table by the window. Outdoor seating as well towards the top/back of boat. Careful sitting up there before take off though as the exhaust was super heavy to breath in.
Couple bathrooms on board were well cleaned and maintained.
Staff was super nice and all come down for the season w the boat. Chatted w a few of the crew.
Views were stunning. Took in a great sunset view while crossing over on the 4:45pm St Pete>Tampa.
Such a great experience, we took the ferry today at 11:30am to St.Pe and returned at 4:45pm, we loved!, It is big and they have a great bar that you can enjoy different beers and cocktails. We went to Salvador Dali museum, walked around the pier and then back to the ferry...just a different view of the city..
This is a must do! We took the ferry from St. Pete to Tampa round trip. It was a relaxing trip, beautiful views and less stress than the drive/parking. We'll definitely do this again when we want to spend an afternoon in Tampa.
The ferry staff I experienced were professional and courteous. The service they provide is to transport you from St Pete to Tampa and vice versa and they do it very well. Added bonus is they do it so well they keep the schedule tight and accurate.
They also keep safety as a high priority. So everyone felt innately safe.
Took two trips today between Tampa and St Pete. Very smooth, clean, and scenic. I wished they added more frequent trips!
Great price, smooth ride, facilities available, parking validated, convenient schedule. Really worth it. Would definitely be something to do when people are visiting the area. A nice day out.
What a delightful, relaxing way to travel! We took the morning ferry to Tampa and walked the Riverwalk, had a leisurely lunch and walk back to catch the 3:15 return trip. The bay was flat and the weather beautiful. The staff (especially the ticket scanning woman) were so pleasant, the seats are comfortable, and what a bargain for $8/$5 (Adult/Senior) Too bad they will be gone at the end of this month until October! (Also, parking at the Sundial Parking Garage is validated by the Ferry crew - they give you a ticket to scan- and parking was free!)
GREAT option to travel Tampa 🔁 Saint Petersburg or one way!!
Friendly crew, full bar, sodas, & clean bathrooms.
Comfortable & smooth ride ~ 45 minutes.
We were escorted by a pod of dolphins from St Pete to Tampa...then we were in the middle of the lighted Boat Parade on our return ferry ride from Tampa.
