ferry terminal
Watercraft departure point
A ferry terminal is a transportation hub where ferries dock to load and unload passengers, vehicles, and cargo.
Like an airport or train station, it serves as the departure and arrival point for scheduled crossings: We waited at the ferry terminal for the boat to Seattle.
Larger terminals include ticketing facilities, waiting areas, and vehicle staging lanes.
