The Hy-Line Cruises company runs fast, comfortable passengers-only ferries from its Ocean Street docks (map) in Hyannis on Cape Cod to Nantucket, and to Oak Bluffs on Martha's Vineyard island.

In the busy months of July and August, it's wise to reserve your seats on the ferries, even if only a few hours before your planned departure.

The alternative to the Hy-Line ferries is the Steamship Authority's passengers-only ferry, which departs from Hyannis's Pleasant Street docks (map), a 10-minute walk around the harbor from Hy-Line's Ocean Street docks.

You can also walk aboard the Steamship Authority's car ferry to Nantucket, but it's a bit slower than the Hy-Line ferries. More...
