Travelling to Victoria - by ferry from Port Angeles or Seattle
The FRS Clipper leaving Victoria
You can also travel from Seattle to Victoria using the FRS Clipper, a high-speed catamaran that covers the distance in 3 hrs at a speed of up to 36 knots. The single trip fare is about US$ 150. (link)
The ferry trip from Port Angeles, a small town in Washington State, USA, to Victoria is comparatively quaint, inexpensive, and fast (1 hr) but getting to Port Angeles from anywhere in the US could be an adventure. The MV Coho is a simple car ferry taking you straight into the Inner Harbour of Victoria. This is a popular ferry with Victorians taking a day trip to the US and/or hiking in the Olympics National Park (link).
