Minfilia Warde

But for some reason people tend to forget that boat exists.

With the additional loading times from travelling via Limsa, and especially once you have the travel speed boost, I find it's just as quick (and less fiddly) to warp directly to Horizon and ride there. I timed it once, and only had a few seconds' difference.

You warp to Limsa, warp or run to the ferry terminal, talk to the ticket seller, arrive in Vesper Bay, walk to the Waking Sands.

Or you warp to Horizon, get on your mount of choice, and ride a very direct path straight to the Sands. It seems like less effort. Less steps involved.
