About the terminal

Tickets for the Guemes crossing are collected on this side of the channel and nowhere else, which is why the run back from the island carries no fare against it. Skagit County runs the boat rather than the state system, and the channel is so narrow that a crossing is over in about five minutes. The berth lies on the northern shore of Anacortes, roughly 4 km from the far larger state terminal for the San Juan Islands; the two dispatch entirely different boats, and arriving at the wrong dock is a common enough slip.
