Try looking in Ft. Myers. We were there in April and saw newpaper ads for a ferry from Ft. Myers to Key West. Our Key West daughter was going to use it to visit her sister in Ft. Myers, but decided to drive it instead (6 hrs. vs. 3 hrs.) JoAnn

Bruce-The ferry is called the Key West Express and it leaves from Marco Island. I believe it takes a little over 3 hours. The phone # is: 941-394-0014

The Key West Express is a 4 hour trip...lays over in Key West 4 hours, then returns. If you wish, you may spend a night(s) and return another day. The only negative thing I've heard is that this can be a VERY long trip if the seas are high.

The design of the Key West Express is a catamaran and it is very stable in rough seas. Of course, some people get seasick in light chop, so it depends on what your consitution is. And if it gets very bad out, they will not run it.
