Ferry from Vancouver Island to Canada 

About Vancouver Island

The British Columbian Vancouver Island in Canada is the largest Pacific island east of New Zealand, measuring 500 km long and 100 km wide. Vancouver Island has seemingly endless amounts of untouched wilderness, with vast lakes, dense forests and incredible backdrops to be found wherever you go, making it a hiker’s paradise. To the south lies Victoria, the island’s cultural hub and largest settlement which is characterised by colourful shops, quirky bars and a large network of cycling routes. Often regarded as the most English-style city in the country, Victoria has plenty to offer keen historians, with its selection of fascinating museums and iconic 19th Century Craigdarroch Castle. Vancouver Island offers numerous crossings to various destinations, both international and domestic. You can sail to many towns on the British Columbian coast and to Seattle in the United States, so there’s a great deal of choice.
