How to Plan a Trip on the Victoria Clipper

Whether taking a trip to Victoria British Colombia or the San Juan islands, the Victoria Clipper Ferry is the fastest and most enjoyable way to travel from Seattle. Sit back and relax as the Clipper crew transports you and caters to your needs.

Things You'll Need

• Clipper schedule
• Money for parking
• Money for breakfast and snacks
• Umbrella

Instructions

1. Park your car at the Clipper terminal located at Pier 69. Try the Bell Street Garage or the Seattle Trade Center Garage.

2. Buy a pre-purchased package, which allows children 11 and under to travel free. Pre-purchased packages are non-refundable, but you can purchase travel insurance for an additional cost. See the "Who Can Help" below for more details.

3. Eat breakfast on board. Whether going to the Islands or Victoria, your trip will depart early. A continental breakfast basket is available for purchase. You can choose from cereal, yogurt or a danish. All come with additional food items.

4. Sit back and relax. The trips to Victoria and the San Juan Islands take approximately three hours. Take this time to visit with your friends and family. This is also a great time for reviewing your site-seeing plans or even taking a snooze.

5. Take advantage of the whale seeing tours when traveling to the San Juan Islands.

6. Double check your departure time before disembarking. There is only one trip back per day.

7. Enjoy your ride home. If you have not eaten, you will be able to choose from a tempting dinner variety on the Clipper, including salmon.

Tips & Warnings

• Come prepared for all types of weather. An umbrella is always a good idea in the Northwest.

• If you are not a U.S. born citizen, you will either need a passport, birth certificate or naturalization certificate, photo ID or a Green Card to enter Canada.
