The Southport Fort Fisher Ferry

Trip Adviser calls it the "best Way to Cross the Cape Fear River in an automobile!"

One rider says: "For 5 bucks it can't be beat. Depending upon when you arrive at the "toll booth," you may have to wait 10 or 20 minutes, but once on the ferry things work with dispatch. Smooth and no problems"

Schedule information from the Southport Times

Driving Instructions to next stop: From the landing, drive 2 miles on Route 421 North to the NC Aquarium at Fort Fisher.
