The Night Ferry to the Island
A small warm cabin, soft rain, and the sea rocking you across.
Read by Drew
How it begins
Settle in now, and let yourself become still... the day is finished, and the night is here to carry you.
Take a slow breath in. Let it fill you gently, all the way down. And let it go.
It is late in the evening, and you are standing on a wooden quay beside the sea. A small ferry is waiting at the end of it, its windows glowing a soft yellow in the dark. It will cross the water slowly tonight, to a quiet island on the other side, and it will take most of the night to get there. There is no hurry. That is the whole point of a night ferry. It goes slowly, so you can rest.
Listen to the whole story in the Sleepy app, with quiet sounds underneath and a timer that fades out when it ends.
