The longest ferry season on the straits.

No other ferry service to Mackinac Island offers a longer sailing season than Arnold Transit Co. From early spring to late fall, Arnold’s triple-deck catamarans and classic ferries cross the straits seven days a week. Our ferries are the largest on the straits so you will always be on our next trip across!
