Creator's Key Takeaways

this is probably the cheapest way to see Tampa or St Pete from the water tickets for this are about $12 a piece

the bay does get pretty pretty rough most of the time yeah cuz it's only a few feet deep so that doesn't take much wind to kind of whip it up right

cheapest way to get on the water I mean granted you could could get a kayak but you still have to buy a kayak I don't know where you're going to get a kayak for $12 maybe thrift store but I think that's going to be tough bargain

make sure that you check the website for when they're running because it's not really clear and even the website can often times be not accurate

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Arrive at the ferry at least 15-30 minutes early
βœ“Check the website for schedule as it's often inaccurate
βœ“Check the weather before going
