Quonset-Oak Bluffs
The Rhode Island fast ferry from Quonset to Martha’s Vineyard is a good choice for those who want to spend less time in the car and enjoy the crossing more. Due to the location of the port, you save on your travel time with this ferry. That certainly applies to the busy summer months when traffic sometimes gets stuck on cape cod.
Quonset is south of Providence, so you can travel quite a distance on water instead of road. This way you avoid the busy traffic and you don't have to drive all the way around Buzzards Bay. The fast ferry travels in a (pretty) straight line to Oak Bluffs. This saves you time on the entire journey.
- This is a ferry for foot passengers so it's not possible to bring a car.
