Default Ferry to PR

I know this has probably been asked a million times on here but I need the info. My flight home is from SJ on Jan 2. SO when is the last ferry before new years and how much does it cost? I have looked at the web site, but its all in spanish, plus I never saw a schedule or prices. Can anyone give me some good details?

i don't know the shedule neither, but an important tip. book it far ahead on time, between christmas eve and new years day that ferry will be very hard overbooked, many dominicans live in PR and come over to see the family, same for the opposite direction.
send me their website address and i take a look on the spanish stuff or contact them by phone for you.

ferry travels sdq to sju on sundays-tuesdays-thursdays. So December 30 or January 1 would be your travelling dates.

Default got the info

Is there anything cheaper? ferry wise?

235 w/o cabin leaving sun, tues and thursday and 8pm 12 hour journey.

313 with cabin.

I wasnt able to understand if it was just one way or round trip.

17878324800 is the number

Peak season is 235 one way from SD to PR, no cabin. The last day of the year they run from Santo D. Is December 27.

Default Flying on AA would be more at that time

I just did a quick check on AA.com. Flying to San Juan, PR that week starts at $348.50 including taxes. Looks like the worst time of year to travel for a low price.
