Connections

Ocean City MD - Coastal Connection - Route 208 Transfers

Passengers will be issued a DART First State Emergency Transfer when getting off the Route 208 in Ocean City. The Emergency Transfer is proof of payment, and is good for free rides on the local Ocean City bus for that day only.

A valid Ocean City Bus Pass can be used from Ocean City only to ride the Route 208 for one trip at no additional change. The Ocean City Bus Pass bearer can also purchase, only at the Ocean City bus stop, a DART First State Daily pass for $1.10 for unlimited riding on that day with within Sussex County, DE.

Passengers can us their DART First State Daily Pass to board the ferry's bus at the Park & Ride lot. The ferry's bus will take passengers directly to the Cape May Lewes Ferry Terminal, where riders can board the ferry as foot passengers to Cape May, NJ for an additional charge.

Daily Pass and the DARTCard

As always, the best value for riding the bus is to purchase a Daily Pass. The cost of the daily pass is $2.10. The Daily Pass allows customers to ride any bus route in Sussex County all day long. Customers who are in the resort area can take advantage of DART First State's DARTCard. This discounted stored value card (used just like cash) can be purchased at DART First State sales outlets, or online, and is available in seven different denominations. For an even greater discount, the DARTCard can be used to purchase a Daily Pass on the bus! DARTCards cannot be re-charged, therefore, when the value runs out, a new card has to be purchased.
