Which should you choose?

Outside high season, the minivan plus car ferry is the main option and runs year-round. If traveling Nov–Apr and want to save time, the speedboat is a bit faster. Traveling as a group or with young kids, a private car charter is easiest since there is no need to switch vehicles.
