Wharf Access and Boarding Information
Exact pontoon matters: Some locations have several nearby wharves. Please do not assume a ferry terminal, private jetty or nearby pontoon is your pickup location.
Accessibility: H2O vessels are not wheelchair accessible. Many harbour wharves have stairs, ramps or changing tidal conditions. Contact us before booking if you have mobility, luggage or boarding requirements.
Weather and closures: Wharf availability can change because of marine works, events, weather or operational restrictions. We will discuss alternatives where practical.
Beach landings: H2O operates from suitable approved wharves and pontoons, not beaches.
Private wharves: Access may require prior permission and is subject to safe vessel operations.
