Tips
"The wifi is slower than cellular data, so don't bother if you've got a decent cell plan."
"Always make a reservation!"
"Always stop at Rocky Mountain Chocolates; they have the absolute best treats! I recommend either the chocolate dipped sour keys or the chocolate coated caramels with course sea salt."
"If you're a walk-on passenger make sure you get to the terminal at least 15 mins before your sailing. They cut-off ticket sales at 10 mins before the sailing"
"Always sit close to the window so you can see the beautiful ocean"
"Wow complainers leaving pretty ridiculous tips. Yea its expensive. I would imagine it costs a bit to operate these boats. Maybe instead of whining learn to swim, cause that's your only other option."
"It's a great idea to make a reservation in the summer, nothing worse than a 6 hour wait for a ferry"
"In the summer BC ferries has park interpreters on board who do discussions about sea life, my three younger children just returned VERY excited about sea wolf eels!"
"Enjoy free WiFi in the departure lounge."
"There are lots of delicious items in the vending machines, convenient too! Give em a try."
"Get a hot cup of coffee on board and just relax and enjoy the trip."
"Make a reservation well ahead of time if you can. They charge more to make one within 7 days of your sailing."
"Check out a great app called crossing the pond with all of the ferry schedules"
"Get a motorbike!"
"Stop by the Rocky Mountain Fudge Company - OMG delicious chocolates & fudge!"
"Right lane for north island hwy"
"Bring ear plugs to catch some shut eye after your awesome weekend!"
