The parking lot in front of 5-11 Drydock Ave. is NOT available for visitors of Thompson Island Outward Bound. There is a public parking lot about .25 miles down Drydock Ave. on your left.
There are many options via the “T”. The Red Line, Silver Line Bus Service, and MBTA Bus Service.
- Red Line Subway:
- Take the Red Line to South Station
- From South Station, you can either walk down Summer Street towards South Boston (about a 20 minute walk), take the Silver Line or take the MBTA bus #7.

- Take the SL3 bus (Marine Industrial Park/CityPoint)
- Tell the driver you would like to get off at the stop on the corner of Harbor Ave. and Drydock Ave. It is across from a ‘guard shack’ in the road.
- Walk directly up a side road towards the channel (water). Our dock is about 100 yards straight ahead just past the red fencing that defines our ferry waiting area. You will see a small wooden sign for “Thompson Island Outward Bound” on a black fence near two phone booths.
- For reference, the Summer Street bridge which crosses the channel is visible and immediately to the right of our dock.
