Gate, terminal, and delay details depend on airline and airport data availability. Always verify with the airline or airport.
Getting from Princess Juliana International Airport (SXM) to Anguilla is a three-leg journey: airport processing, taxi transfer to Marigot, then the public ferry to Blowing Point. The ferry crossing itself is quick, but the transfer window around it matters.
From wheels-down at SXM to boarding the ferry, plan for at least 60 minutes. Use 75 to 90 minutes if you have checked bags, a large group, or land during a busy arrival bank. Tight connections are the most common reason travelers miss the boat.
If your flight lands late and you miss the last public ferry at 6:00 PM, a private shared charter is your most practical alternative. Several operators run on-demand transfers from near SXM Airport directly to Blowing Point. The crossing takes similar time to the public ferry at a higher but predictable cost. If you are arriving on an evening flight, confirm charter availability before you travel rather than assuming a backup exists.
Morning arrivals before noon are the most relaxed option for the SXM-to-Anguilla connection. Multiple ferry windows are available, immigration lines are typically shorter, and there is enough daylight buffer if something minor goes wrong. Afternoon arrivals after 3:00 PM carry more scheduling risk. Multiple inbound flight banks can compound into long customs lines, and a 30-minute immigration delay can cascade directly into missing your targeted ferry departure.

Last public ferry reminder
The last public ferry from Marigot departs at 6:00 PM. If your flight lands after 4:30 PM, consider a private shared charter from near SXM Airport and confirm directly with the operator.
The most frequent reason travelers miss the Anguilla ferry connection is underestimating the SXM immigration queue. Depending on the day and arrival bank, customs can take anywhere from 10 minutes to 45 minutes. During peak winter season (December through April), assume the longer end and build your buffer time accordingly.
Baggage claim at SXM can also surprise first-time visitors. If you are connecting through San Juan or Miami, luggage from a widebody aircraft may take 30-45 minutes to appear on the belt. Checked bags mean you need more time than carry-on-only travelers. Adjust your planned buffer before committing to a target ferry departure.
The taxi from SXM to Marigot is typically 20 minutes, but traffic near the cruise port and afternoon congestion can push that to 35-40 minutes on a busy day. Add ten minutes of contingency if you are cutting it close to a ferry departure. Drivers will take the route they know, so the estimate is reliable, but not guaranteed.
Marigot ferry tickets are purchased at the terminal on the day of travel. You cannot book the public ferry to Anguilla online in advance. Arrive a few minutes before your target departure to buy your ticket and board without rushing. The public ferry generally does not hold for late passengers, and the next scheduled departure may be an hour away.
