Sunshine Coast Ferry Information

The Sunshine Coast is a mere 40 minutes by ferry from Horseshoe Bay in West Vancouver, through some of the most stunning scenery you will ever experience.  And if you prefer not to drive, there are buses on both sides of the ferry to take you where you need to go.
  
 

BC Ferries
The ferry to the Sunshine Coast is inexpensive, costing only $12 per person for a round trip, and $60.50 for a car & driver the round trip.  Compare that to the Vancouver Island ferries (to Victoria and Nanaimo) at $28.50 per person, and $151.30 for a car & driver round trip.  Plus the ferries to Vancouver Island take 1-1/2 hours compared to only 40 minutes to the Sunshine Coast.  It just makes sense to stay with us, and take advantage of all the Sunshine Coast has to offer.
