Skagway to Haynes Ferry- solid info needed

[hawaiideb]

We are on the NCL Sun in Skagway June 13th from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm. Having been to Skagway twice and been on the train both times, we would like to do something new. We are looking for information on catching a ferry to Haines. I can't seem to find info online about a Ferry that goes solely between Skagway and Haines. Any help ould be appreciated. Thanks.

It's spelled Haines. Not Haynes. That might be part of the problem.

Here's the Fast Ferry website. http://www.hainesskagwayfastferry.com/index.html

Their contact info is on there.

$70 roundtrip per person, leaving Skagway at 8:00 am and Haines at 1:00 pm. Is that enough time for the money?

I think that Haines is a lovely community, but only you can answer your question "is that enough time for the money?"

What date will you be there?

 

For us, that would not be enough time, but I guess it just depends on what you want to do in Haines.

 

We like to catch the last ferry back from Haines at 7 pm, arriving in Skagway at 7:45 p.m.

 

On two cruises, we got lucky and were able to do that.

 

Fast Ferry Schedule - Haines to Skagway

This 2014 schedule from Haines starts just showing May, but you can change the dates up at the top.

 

Unfortunately the scheduled time for the last return ferry from Haines varies greatly depending on which day you go, and we cannot pick the day because we are stuck with whichever day our cruise ship happens to be there.

 

There are some cruises that dock in Haines instead of Skagway.
