The Ferry ride from Vancouver to Victoria is spectacular
We explored two ways of getting from Vancouver to Victoria: Taking a sea plane and a ferry. The ferry is much more affordable and offers the opportunity to spend time on the water.
We booked our trip through Pacific Coach; the price was $125 Canadian dollars for one adult and two children. A bus picked us up at our hotel at 7:30 a.m. and then we picked up more passengers at a couple more stops, before driving an hour to the ferry terminal. The bus drove onto a massive ship that holds some 1,700 people. We hopped off and walked up to the top deck on the seventh floor. The views were breathtaking with the snowy Olympic Range rising above the blue waters of the Pacific. We spotted a bald eagle and waved to boats passing by. When the boat arrived on Vancouver Island, we hopped back on the bus. An hour later, we were at the Bus Depot in downtown Victoria, a short walk to our hotel, the Best Western Plus Inner Harbour.
Here are some images from our trip:
