Little Traverse Bay Ferry Co. (The Ferry & Harbor Princess)
Expanded Ferry Schedule for Farmers Market Days
We’re excited to continue our farmers market ferry schedule this season with even more opportunities to ride. We’ll be running five extra trips per day starting at 8:30 AM. Wednesday & Saturday for the Harbor Springs Farmers Market and Friday for the Petoskey Farmers Market . Our schedule for Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday will remain the same as last year. It’s a great way to shop local, enjoy the waterfront, and skip the traffic between communities.
