Travel & Accomodations
Getting to Salt Spring Island
From Vancouver: Take a BC Ferry from Tsawwassen to Long Harbour (reserve early!) You can also catch a ferry to Swartz Bay, then ferry from Swartz Bay to SSI with more options available. Tell the ticketer when arriving at Tsawassen Terminal & they will help guide you
From Victoria: Take a BC ferry from Swartz Bay to Fulford Harbour.
Good options but non-reservable.
Floatplanes (Harbor Air, Salt Spring Air, Seair) fly from downtown Vancouver to Ganges! Quick, scenic, and a little magical.

Travel Note
BC Ferry Vancouver to Salt Spring Island (Direct)
There are limited options from Vancouver (Tsawwassen Terminal) directly to Salt Spring Island. Book Early if you are hoping to get one of these ferries.
Travel Note
BC Ferries Victoria to Salt Spring Island
There are more options from Victoria to SSI, but they are non-reservable. You can book a ferry from Tsawwassen to Swartz Bay, then take a ferry from Swartz Bay to Salt Spring Island, but plan ahead that you may have to wait a sailing or two, though usually the Gulf Islands do not have multiple sailing waits.
Travel Note
Take a SeaPlane from Coal Harbour to Salt Spring!
If you're happy to spend a bit more on travel, taking a sea plane is a delightful way to get to Salt Spring and cuts the commute time way down, plus you won't have to deal with ferry lineups. Make sure to book ahead!
For all the days along the way
