Direct Ferries runs discounts across the calendar year. If your route qualifies for a senior discount, it's applied for you automatically as soon as you choose the correct age bracket in the passenger options when you search.
Students and recent graduates qualify for a 5% saving on their ticket. Register with our partner Student Beans to confirm your eligibility, then apply the discount code you receive at checkout.
A resident discount is also on offer for a number of Spanish and Italian crossings — select the "Residents" option where available and the price will adjust automatically. Make sure you can show proof of address, such as a residency certificate or ID card, when you check in.
Document requirements differ by route, so check what you'll need well before departure. Travelling from Nassau to Fresh Creek generally calls for a valid passport, plus any visa or national ID your nationality requires. Since rules depend on both your citizenship and your destination's regulations, our Check-in, Travel Documents & Tickets guide is a good place to check the details and avoid delays at check-in.
Getting your tickets is simple — enter your departure port, arrival port, and preferred travel date to see every fare and sailing available. From there, you can compare alternative routes and departure times to land on the best option for your trip.
Watch for early-bird pricing and flexible ticket formats, such as upgrades or flexi-fares that allow later changes or cancellations. Enter your details accurately, including passenger count and vehicle information, to keep your booking process smooth.
A confirmation email lands in your inbox the moment your booking is finalised. How your boarding pass gets issued from there depends on the specific ferry operator.
Certain operators release your boarding pass right after booking; others want you to check in once you reach the port. Where available, the Direct Ferries app lets you check in online ahead of time.
Ticket desks sit near the ferry terminal in most cases. Give yourself extra time before departure to collect your tickets and complete check-in without stress.
You'll need to present your confirmation email plus valid photo ID — a passport or identity card — at check-in. Pet owners should bring vaccination and insurance paperwork, and anyone using a resident discount should have proof of address on hand.
A handful of reasons can explain the lack of departures from Nassau to Fresh Creek on your selected date — timetable adjustments, sold-out sailings, or a seasonal gap are the usual culprits. Try a different date or browse other routes through our Route & Port finder.
Booking your Nassau to Fresh Creek ferry early usually pays off, both in terms of price and choice — earlier bookings tend to unlock better fares and more departure and cabin options.

Located on the idyllic eastern coast of Andros Island, the largest of the inhabited landmasses that make up the archipelagic nation of the Bahamas, is the island capital of Andros Town. Once a part of the now dissolved Fresh Creek region, this sparsely populated settlement is set along a long silver-sand seafront that overlooks the shallows of the Atlantic Ocean and the vibrant Andros Barrier Reef below. The area is also known as the home to underwater caverns known as Blue Holes that plunge deep into the seabed. The port is found to the north of town on the banks of the Fresh Creek waterway. It consists of nothing more than a ferry check-in terminal, a compact car-park and a few jetties that extend into the turquoise waters of the creek. The closest amenities to the port are found across the bridge that stretches north over the river. They include a bank, a restaurant, and a local shop selling food and drink. Due to the largely remote nature of the island only a few transport routes cover the island. Just two main roads exist in Central Andros, the largest of which is the Queen’s Highway that cuts through Andros Town and stretches along the verdant, palm-lined eastern coast. No public bus or train service exists either, though taxi cabs are available to take passengers to most of the island hotspots. Just one ferry route leaves from Fresh Creek port. A Bahamas Ferries line sails once a week to the Bahaman capital of Nassau, a short north-eastern voyage that skirts along the glistening island shores of New Providence.
