AIR TRAVEL

The two airports nearest to Woods Hole are Boston Logan Airport (BOS) and Providence T.F. Green Airport (PVD). Both airports are just under 80 miles from Woods Hole, and both offer excellent bus service (Peter Pan Bus Lines and Plymouth & Brockton Bus Lines) to Falmouth and Woods Hole. Please check bus schedules and book well ahead of time.

GROUND TRANSPORTATION

Peter Pan Bus Lines and Plymouth & Brockton Bus Lines is available to Falmouth/Woods Hole from Boston South Station and Boston Logan Airport as well as Providence Bus Terminal only (not from T.F. Green Airport). At Boston’s Logan Airport, Peter Pan buses leave directly for Falmouth and Woods Hole, taking about 1.5 - 2 hours.  The bus stop for “scheduled buses” can be found right outside each terminal (exit ground floor of the baggage claim area) at Boston Logan Airport. You must book on-line in advance for bus service, and it is a good idea to book early! Both airports also offer many rental car services.
