Directions to
San Juan Islands Ferry Terminal
You travel to Orcas Island either by plane or by
ferry. The Washington State Ferry System serves
Orcas Island from the mainland terminal in
Anacortes several times a day, and from Sidney,
near Victoria, British Columbia, once daily.
By car. The drive from Seattle to the
Anacortes Ferry Terminal takes about 2 hours.
Take I-5 north to the Highway 20 exit just north
of Mt. Vernon. Take Highway 20 west, following
the signs through Anacortes to the San Juan
Islands Ferry Terminal.
In the summer, the ferries are crowded. Plan to
be at the terminal a minimum of 2 hours prior to
the scheduled sailing in order to avoid lengthy
delays.
