ferry schedule & prices >>Once the year 2023 has begun, and after the stop of the Jaume II ferry for its mandatory inspections, all the schedules of the ferry services that connect Fort Lauderdale with Bimini and Freeport (Grand Bahama) in the Bahamas are already underway. Here we show you the scheduled schedule, as of today, for Balearia ferry to travel between Florida and Bahamas, in both directions. You can also check the dates and times that the Balearia Caribbean ferry makes the direct route between Bimini and Freeport as a layover between Fort Lauderdale and Grand Bahama.
The ferrie usually leave quite early from Port Everglades (Fort Lauderdale) and in just 2 hours it reaches Bimini and in 3 hours it reaches Freeport. Every week there are usually between 2 and 4 departures from Florida to each of the islands, being in summer, spring break and Christmas when there are more departures.
In case there is any change in the schedules and/or dates scheduled for the departures of the ship, Balearia Caribbean will contact you directly through the communication channels that you have provided at the time of making the reservation (email, sms, telephone) so it is very important that you make sure that you enter your information correctly when you make your ferry reservation to the Bahamas.
