Four MBTA ferry routes will keep running into the winter, through December 31, 2026, the MBTA announced on October 28:

  • East Boston, weekdays and weekends
  • Winthrop, weekdays
  • Quincy, weekdays
  • Lynn, weekdays

There’s no ferry service on Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Year’s Day, and bad weather or rough seas can cancel boats. Check the MBTA’s ferry schedules or the MBTA Go app before you go. The Hingham/Hull and Charlestown boats run year-round anyway.
