Service notice - Vehicle Traffic at Capacity

Posted:   Friday, August 16, 2024

Issued: 7:39 pm

Vehicle deck space on our Swartz Bay (Victoria) to Tsawwassen (Vancouver) sailings has reached capacity for the remainder of tonight, Friday, August 16.

Foot passenger space remains available at this time. We recommend arriving at the terminal 45-60 minutes prior to the scheduled sailing you intend to travel on.

Please consider taxi service, public transit or arrange to be dropped off at the terminal to avoid traffic congestion as parking lots will be very busy.

For up-to-date sailing and departure information, check Current Conditions, follow @BCFerries on X or phone 1-888-223-3779 for further assistance.
