Long Island's "bridge" to Connecticut makes several trips each day. When planning a trip to New England most Long Islanders need to consider the 20 mile distance across Long Island Sound. So near, yet so far... the drive requires a long ride west through and around NYC to head north. Fortunately, ferry service provides an alternative (which can be a bit pricey) saving a few hours driving time. There's something to be said as well for the lack of aggravation as one cruises the Sound with the car snugly secured below deck. Weekends, especially during ski season can get very busy at the ferry terminal and reservations are a must.
