Please be advised that starting as early as June 22, 2020, the Wolfe Island Ferry will be travelling from the Kingston Dock to the Dawson Point Dock in preparation of the upcoming ferry dock rehabilitation projects. The ferry will continue to dock at Dawson’s point for approximately the next three years. There are no anticipated impacts to the ferry service during construction.

To continue supporting residents needing to walk-on on the ferry for travel, a shuttle service will be organized by Township of Frontenac Islands to be implemented June 22, 2020, when the ferry is moved. To ensure everyone’s safety, physical distancing will be ensured on the shuttle and ask that passengers continue to maintain a physical distance of 2 metres when waiting for the shuttle or the ferry. To allow you to start to prepare, please note that the shuttle can only hold 12 passengers per trip, same house hold members  are able to share a seat and the anticipated shuttle schedule can be seen below. More information on the shuttle schedule will be shared closer to the move of the ferry.

Due to the decrease in passenger usage during the winter months, the Dawson Point ferry dock shuttle bus will run until October 13th, 2020. The shuttle will resume its route during the early spring of 2022

The Wolfe Island Ferry operates from the Marysville Dock (summer) from ICE OUT to ICE IN at which time it moves to the Dawson Point Dock (winter). Low water conditions in the village can cause an earlier departure of the ferry to the winter dock.

The ferry serves as a vital life-line to the Island's long established community. It also services the many thousands of people visiting Wolfe Island and coming from the States in to Canada.

Ferrying to the Island has a long history. In 1904, Wolfe Island bought the original Wolfe Islander; in 1946, the Ontario government bought the Wolfe Islander II and in 1964, the province assumed ferry control and initiated free highway access.

* IMPORTANT DANGEROUS GOODS UPDATE: Effective July 30, 2015 there will be no designated dangerous goods ferry trips for propane and gasoline highway tankers with a capacity of less than 20 000 Litres classified as; UN1075, LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM GASES, Class 2.1, UN1203, GASOLINE, Class 3, Packing Group II, or UN1978, PROPANE, Class 2.1. However, the federal Transportation of Dangerous Goods Act requires that dangerous goods tankers containing materials as noted above be transported to and from Wolfe Island one tanker at a time on any regularly scheduled trip. This also applies to empty but un-purged mobile units that previously carried the above noted dangerous goods on the return trip. Carriers will be accepted as first come, first served.
