 Flying to Vancouver Island by Ann75
Regular floatplane and helicopter service to downtown Victoria is also available from Vancouver and Seattle. Charter flights for sightseeing, wildlife viewing, hiking and fishing excursions, and to more remote Vancouver Island locations are also available.
There are also many float plane componies that fly frequently between the mainland of BC to the Islands. For example there is "Harbour Air Seaplanes", "West Coast Air Ltd.", "Pacific Coastal Airlines" and many more! Leave a Comment

Seaplanes, floating planes, flying boats...
I think it's fun, I've never been on one yet.
It's the same as a regular small airplane but getting off from water.
Also I would call them flying cars that land on water :)))
Probably when it's stormy waters niether ferry or seaplane is a good way to get to the mainland.
About regular planes in my next tip... Leave a Comment

 The veiw from the "flying
car", really COOL! by Minka007
It seems really romantic and convinient and not even that expensive.
As you just pay for the fuel and time in the air.
If you can't lead the plane yourself you can hire and instructor, though it'll be more expensive.
My boyfriend is learning how to fly the plane and it's really cool!
There is also Airport and you can take a regular airplane to get to the mainland. Leave a Comment

Perhaps the coolest way to get to Victoria is via the harbor planes (seaplanes) that operate between Vancouver and Victoria. The second time that I went over to Victoria from Vancouver, I took the harbor planes and thought they were so convenient. I just walked down to the Burrard Inlet in Vancouver, hopped onboard the float plane and about 30 minutes later we touched down in Victoria Harbor. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

 Vancouver Downtown after
take-off by mike-tango
The sky is blue and the sun shines ?
200 CAD is not too expensive for you ?
Take a seaplane at Coal Harbour ! 210 CAD (taxes included) to fly from Vancouver to Victoria.
The view on Vancouver after take-off is amazing ! To have the better view, take a seat on the left side of the aircraft. You ask the pilot to seat near him : it's the same price !
When flying back from Victoria you will enjoy the view on the Gulf Islands and Mount Baker.
A great flight !!! Leave a Comment

 Waiting for the Ferry. by dabidc
The present schedule is for ferries from each terminus leaving on the hour from 6.00am, the ferries on the odd hour are larger and can accommodate more vehicles. Remember that trucks are also driven on to the ferries.
At peak times in the summer you may have to wait for the next ferry. It is also possible to reserve a certain ferry, note you pay extra.
An example of the cost for two passengers and a small car is a little over $50.00 Cdn for each ferry journey, the time on the ferry is close to 100 minutes. Snacks are available on the ferries and close to the lines of cars waiting for access to the boats. Leave a Comment

 Cruising the islands by kalaika
The most economical is the BC Ferry from Tsawassen (outside Vancouver) to Swartz Bay. It's under $10.00 for a walk on passenger during peak season and under $40.00 for car and driver. Leave a Comment
