Reviews
Such a lovely experience, Deanna the ferry driver is fantastic and we really appreciated her kindness and enthusiasm. It was a beautiful day for a ride and my 3 year old buddy was so excited. Well worth doing, especially with children. Such an easy way to get across to Rabbit Island from Mapua and worth it for the experience.nThanks Deanna for the wonderful service
I think you can pretty easily swim to Rabbit Island but the ferry will keep you dry. It leaves on the hour and as of November 2024, a round trip ticket was $11 USD per person. You can buy tickets on their website or on the ferry itself.
Such a lovely trip back and forth to rabbit island. Also want to give a HUGE thanks to the ferry captain and the person on the phone at Kiwi Journeys, who mobilized to get us back early when our 8 year old broke his finger in a bike accident. Thank you!
There’s something really charming about short ferry trips!nnWe take the Itchenor to Bosham ferry West Sussex, UK two or three times a year with our bikes.nnAnd if we lived near this one we’d be doing the same.nnRabbit Island has a glorious beach and the cycleway is well-maintained, so not much excuse needed to pop across by Mapua Ferry!nnIt’s such a relief to be able to get on and off so easily. Just roll up, roll on, and roll off using the simple ramp.nnThe Skipper on our day was Steve. We overheard him talking to Luke, another passenger riding a Kiwi Journeys bike. Turns out that both of them used to work big yachts. So the few hundred metres from Mapua to Rabbit Island wasn’t too taxing for Steve!nnHe ferried us with good humour and was bang on time both ways - of course it helps if you can see your passengers waiting across the water…and vice versa!nnWe had a really good day out topped and tailed by Mapua Ferry rides - recommended highly.
Great service! Was cold and wet waiting, I called up to make sure the operator knew there were 3 people waiting for the 5.10pm ferry and he came instantly. Was very glad to get out of the cold early
