About the terminal

Alone among the British Columbia terminals in these pages, this one is not worked by BC Ferries and does not stay in Canada. Black Ball Ferry Line crosses the Strait of Juan de Fuca to Port Angeles in Washington State, twenty-two and a half nautical miles and about an hour and a half at sea, sailing from the Inner Harbour downtown rather than from a terminal out of town. Being an international sailing, it brings customs and immigration at both ends. Ferries to the mainland and the Gulf Islands go instead from Swartz Bay, some thirty kilometres north on the Saanich Peninsula.
