Is There a Bus From the Airport to the Ferry?
Venom Zak posted,
Does anyone know what bus I would take from the
Vancouver Airport to the Ferry Station? I have never been to
the ferry before, so I don't even know what its called. Also,
would said bus run late at night? My flight doesn't get in
until 11:11pm... If I can get to the ferry, I'll just post up
under a bench for the night, catch the first one in the
morning and I'm covered on the other end.
Thanks,

Hi Zack...If you are getting to Vancouver that late, you are not going to make the last ferry.
There IS a way to get there on the bus...I do not know the routes. You will actually need to CHANGE buses. If no one answers here with the route numbers, ask at the airport, I am sure they can direct you, or find someone who can.
Where you want to go is the HORSESHOE BAY Ferry Terminal. The ferry you are taking is the LANGDALE/SUNSHINE COAST FERRY.
If you end up at the wrong terminal (there are TWO), or get on the wrong boat at Horseshoe Bay (you want LANGDALE, not VANCOUVER ISLAND), you are going to get waaaay lost, and spend a lot of money fixing it.
Link to the Ferry schedule for the boat you want:

The earliest ferry leaving Horseshoe Bay is at 7:20am.
Actually, I found a site that has what I think you need:

Directions for the bus from Vancouver Intl Airport (YVR) to Horseshoe Bay Ferry Terminal!
Ain't the internet grand??
See you there, good luck!
