Overview

Whether you ride the ferry from Anacortes, fly from SeaTac or by seaplane from Seattle's Lake Union, or hop on the sleek Victoria Clipper in downtown Seattle or Victoria, BC, arriving at the ferry terminal or boarding your plane marks the beginning of your San Juan Islands vacation.

Getting here is half the fun! A leisurely ride on a Washington State Ferry gives you a taste of the archipelago's beauty, with a choice of stops—Lopez, Orcas, Shaw, or San Juan, the largest islands. By plane you'll have a more expansive view—snow-tipped Mt. Baker, the Olympic and Cascade ranges, and islands stretching in every direction.
