Saint George is accessible only by air and sea. There are two airstrips; one is owned by the city, and the other is owned by the state. Scheduled flights are provided to Saint Paul and the mainland.

There are three docks; one is operated by the village corporation. An inner harbor and dock are in Zapadni Bay, 5 miles from the city.
