About these terms 👋

BahamasHopping is an independently operated information site about ferry travel in the Bahamas. These terms set out the rules for using it and are written in plain English.

🚢 Acceptance of These Terms

By using BahamasHopping.com you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

Last updated: July 29, 2026 — These terms are updated from time to time.

🗺️ What We Do (And Don't Do)

What the site offers: Information on ferry routes, schedules and prices across the Bahamas, with practical notes on terminals, luggage and travel documents.

What the site does not do: BahamasHopping does not operate any ferries. When you book through the links on this site, you book directly with the ferry operator or a booking partner. BahamasHopping is not a party to that booking.

Note: Check your booking details with the ferry operator before you travel. Schedules change with weather and vessel maintenance.

💰 How the Site Is Funded

The site uses affiliate links. When you book through a partner, BahamasHopping earns a commission, usually 3-8%. It does not add to your price. The commissions pay for running the site. The affiliate disclosure page explains the details.

Selection: Only operators with a verifiable timetable and published booking terms are listed.

✅ Your Part of The Deal

When using BahamasHopping, you agree to:

  • Be honest: Use accurate details when booking; operators check names against travel documents
  • Be responsible: Check passport requirements, arrival times, and weather conditions
  • Be respectful: Do not scrape the content or attempt to interfere with the site
  • Be 18+: Or have a parent's or guardian's permission
