The promotional code “KIDSRIDEFREE24'' can be used at checkout to access this promotion, but it does require the joint purchase of an adult ticket so there will be no solo young seafarers. The deal lasts through March and April except for dates of Tampa Bay Lightning home games.
The ferry, runs between Tampa and St. Petersburg, Wednesday-Sunday with a few late night departures on Friday and Saturday.
“Even an everyday commute can be a fun family adventure when you skip the traffic and shake off the winter blues by sailing on the Cross Bay Ferry,” said Matt Miller, President of HMS Ferries, operator of the Cross Bay Ferry.
There are plenty of activities for families to do on either side of the bay and the downtown ports make it easy to get to attractions in both Tampa and St. Petersburg.
