A view of the loading dock on the Bay Saint Louis side while onboard the Bay St. Louis-Pass Christian Ferry during Christmas of 2006

Carl McCaskey, on October 22, 2007, said:

Hurricane Katrina destroyed parts of the bridge connecting Bay Saint Louis to Pass Christian and the State of Mississippi got a ferry operation underway to shuttle vehicles from the two sides of the bay soon thereafter. The ferry service continued until a passable bridge was reconstructed. It was free to whomever desired to use it and ran from early in the morning to usually past sundown.
