Creator's Key Takeaways

The ferry isn't widely advertised, but it's a great way to make the most of your day if you want to visit St. George's.

The complimentary ferry made our visit to St. George's an easy and budget friendly DIY adventure.

Thankfully, the ferry could hold 430 passengers, so there was more than enough room for everyone.

The trip was a scenic ride that provided a nice opportunity to cool off and enjoy the views.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Check the ship's daily schedule for ferry times as they may vary by ship and itinerary
Arrive early for the ferry; boarding begins around 30 minutes before departure
If complimentary ferry times don't align with your plans, use the Bermuda Shorelink public ferry as an alternative
Bring US currency for the public ferry as it's accepted at a 1:1 rate with Bermudian dollar

YouTube Video Description

Bermuda is an easy destination to explore on your own. And if you’re sailing to the island with Norwegian Cruise Line, there’s a not-so-obvious perk you’ll definitely want to take advantage of during your visit. NCL runs a complimentary ferry between the Royal Naval Dockyard and the town of St. George’s, which is located all the way at the other end of the island. The ferry isn’t widely advertised, but it’s a great way to make the most of your day, if you want to visit St. George’s. In this video, we’ll show you exactly how the complimentary NCL ferry worked, between the Royal Naval Dockyard and St. George’s, during our June 2025 cruise aboard the Norwegian Getaway.
