Once on board you will really enjoy the availability of snacks and drinks in case you get hungry or thirsty during the crossing. Those carrying surfboards or bicycles will have no problem storing them on board, but they will be traveling at their own risk. While on board check out the three decks and plan for a photo on the upper deck when you are close to your final destination.
Viking Fleet does not offer auto ferry service, but chooses to focus specifically on passengers. Reservations should be made to ensure availability. Reservations may be made online or by phone and they are non-refundable. Visa and MasterCard are accepted.
The Viking Fleet also offers fishing specials so if you are an avid fisherman you should definitely check out what's available. There are day trips and several day trips to catch all kinds of different fish. Of course the season will affect what you fish for, but year round fishing trips are offered so you can catch just about whatever you want when you head on one of these trips. The cool thing is that most of these fishing trips are all inclusive so once you pay for the trip you don't have to pay for anything else. That's because the one time fee includes bunk, food, drinks, gratuity, tackle, cleaning, fish storage, and more. Many world record fish have been caught on some of these trips so if you are serious about fishing Mahi Mahi, Tuna, Squid, Cod, and other types of fish then you must check out some of these fishing trips and great prices.
