Everett to Langley Ferry Service This Summer
>A new passenger-only ferry route will connect Everett and Langley this summer as local port officials launch a seasonal pilot program aimed at boosting tourism and testing demand for future cross-sound service.
>The new “Harbor Hopper” foot ferry will begin operating June 4 through Aug. 29, offering twice-daily roundtrip sailings on Thursdays and Saturdays between the Port of Everett and Langley on South Whidbey Island. The service will operate aboard the 45-passenger Hat Island Ferry.
>The pilot program is a partnership between the Port of Everett, Port of South Whidbey and Hat Island Community Association. Officials said it marks the first seasonal passenger-only ferry connection between the two waterfront communities.
>Passengers will be able to choose from two Everett-bound and two Langley-bound sailings each operating day, except July 2 and July 4. Trips are expected to take about 30 to 45 minutes.
>Fares range from $10 to $12 one-way and $16 to $20 roundtrip.
