Summer Schedule Revisions
Nanaimo (Nanaimo Harbour) to Gabriola Island (Descanso Bay)
July 5 – August 30, 2024

To enhance the frequency of Friday evening sailings during the summer on our Nanaimo (Nanaimo Harbour) to Gabriola Island (Descanso Bay) route, we’ve added the following sailings each Friday starting July 5 through August 30, 2024:

 

Departing Nanaimo (Nanaimo Harbour)

Departing Gabriola Island (Descanso Bay)

5:40 pm

6:15 pm

 

To accommodate this change, the above sailings will replace the existing Friday morning sailings departing Descanso Bay at 7:05 am and departing Nanaimo Harbour at 7:35 am.

Additionally, we will trial this new schedule daily from Monday, August 12, through Friday, August 16, 2024.
