The Port Aranas Ferry Schedule

The ferry service operates all day every day and crosses the Corpus Christi channel constantly, except in extreme weather conditions. Once all vehicles and passengers are boarded expect the journey to take on longer than 10 minutes.

During busy periods up to six ferries can be in operation at the same time to reduce the wait times, though when exceptionally busy you could expect to be waiting for more than an hour to board a ferry from the mainland to Mustang Island or from the Mustang island to the mainland. Weekdays, out of season, will be the least busy times to cross.
