Reservations open up two weeks and two days before intended travel date: For example, if traveling on 09/20/24: • Two weeks before (09/06/24) at 7:00AM • Two days before (09/18/24) at 7:00AM ***We strongly recommend that you are ready to get the reservation at exactly 7:00AM because of how fast they get taken. ***Ferry Tickets are round trip, however, you will want to make a reservation both ways unless you want to try standby on the way back. Reservation Link: secureapps.wsdot.wa.gov/Ferries/Reservations/Vehicle/SailingSchedule.aspx Alternatives: • You can leave your car in Anacortes and walk on, this does not require a reservation. (The venue is about a 15 minute walk with a slight incline from the ferry terminal) • You can try for Standby but you would need to get there minimum of two hours ahead of time and still does not guarantee a spot. • You can continually check the website to see if any spots have been cancelled and open up for availability. This is especially true the day before as people tend to give up their spots before it’s too late to cancel without getting changed.

Travel Note
The ferry system in peak summer months to the San Juan Islands is a large commodity. Please book a reservation early on, we encourage it! We would hate to miss you on this special occasion. If you are bringing a car to San Juan Island you'll need a round trip ferry reservation. The sooner you make the reservation the better. The ferry reservation is not a ticket. You can purchase a round trip ticket online or at the ferry terminal upon your arrival.
