About the terminal
The terminal that serves Victoria sits about thirty kilometres from the city, at the tip of the Saanich Peninsula beyond Sidney, which leaves arriving passengers with half an hour of road still to do. Six directions run from here. The trunk route crosses to Tsawwassen, ninety-five minutes over twenty-four nautical miles of the Strait of Georgia; the other five fan out into the Southern Gulf Islands, the shortest of them five nautical miles to Fulford Harbour on Salt Spring. All five island runs are ticketed here for the round trip, so the legs back from the islands appear unpriced.
