St. Thomas airport to ferry to Tortola
 
I am arriving at St. Thomas airport on a Tuesday afternoon in March and am wondering how to get from the airport to the ferry that will take me to Tortola. What is the name of the location for the ferry, and where can I find the ferry schedule from that location?

Ferries to Tortola leave from either Charlotte Amalie or Red Hook. Which one is "best" depends on what day and time you travel and where on Tortola you want to go. You have to take a taxi from the airport to either ferry dock. You'll find plenty of taxis waiting at the airport.

Go here for ferry schedules (use the dropdown menu to select the schedules for the different ferries): http://www.bestofbvi.com/info/info_bviferry.htm

Thank you for the info. We will be staying in the West End of Tortola. Does that make a difference in terms of which ferry we take?

There are ferries to the West End from both Charlotte Amalie and Red Hook. take the one that meshes best with the day & time of your flight. Refer to the link I gave you.
