Amenities
It's the little things that make a difference. Here's what you'll need to know
to make the most of your visit to the Camden Waterfront.
Getting Here
The Camden Waterfront is conveniently located along the Delaware River, in the
heart of the greater Philadelphia region, and getting here is now easier than
ever. Visitors traveling by car will find that it is easily accessible to and
from Interstates 95 and 76, the Pennsylvania and New Jersey Turnpikes, and
Routes 295, 70, 73, 130 and 38. Plenty of affordable parking is available at the
Camden Waterfront for your convenience.
Or make getting here part of the fun and hop on the RiverLink Ferry, PATCO
Speedline and the new River LINE light rail system.
The
RiverLink Ferry runs during the months of May
through September and connects the Camden Waterfront to Penn's Landing with
parking available on both sides of the river. It runs from 9:00 a.m. to 5:40
p.m. every twenty minutes, all for the low price of $6 for adults, $5 for
seniors age 65 & up and children ages 3-12. Children under the age of three ride
FREE.
PATCO Speedline offers fast, comfortable
and reliable alternatives to traffic congestion and parking fees
around-the-clock and every day of the week with connections to SEPTA, via its
four stops in Center City Philadelphia, and NJ Transit, at its nine stops in New
Jersey. Tickets can be purchased at each station with prices ranging from $1.30
to $2.45 based upon the distance you travel.
NJ
TRANSIT River LINE rail service connects 20 stations
between Trenton and the Camden Waterfront. Service operates
weekdays, weekends and holidays - all at an affordable
one-way fare of $1.25! Go to
RiverLINE.com for service information or call
1-800-772-2222.
