foot ferry
Walk-on water shuttle
A foot ferry is a ferry service that carries passengers on foot, as opposed to vehicles.
These small boats typically cross rivers, harbors, or other short waterways where building a bridge would be impractical or where pedestrian traffic doesn't justify larger vessels: We took the foot ferry across the harbor to avoid the long drive around.
