Anchors Away! New Water Taxi Service to Launch

Soon our residents will be cruising our coastal communities in style! The City of Pompano Beach is proud to be partnering with the Fort Lauderdale Water Taxi to bring this popular service to our City, offering 11 local stops, along with connections to popular destinations in Fort Lauderdale and Hollywood. The official launch of the Pompano Beach Water Taxi Service will take place December 16th!

The decision to embark on this project was passed unanimously by the City Commission, and the service is being funded by a $1.2 million grant from FDOT and a $876,000 grant by the American Rescue Plan Act.

Residents can anticipate seeing the water taxis in the vicinity during the upcoming weeks as they prepare for both the soft launch in early December and their participation in the Holiday Boat Parade.

Currently, the proposed operation hours are 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., with 128 stops per day, running 362 days a year. Ticket prices will run $15 to $30 for adults, with resident multi-day passes for $80 and resident annual passes for $250.

As the anticipated official launch approaches, the website will be updated with full details about the Water Taxi local stops, connections, hours of operation and ticket and pass prices. Learn more at www.watertaxi.com.
