What flights should I book?
We suggest that you arrive no later than 9:00 AM on Friday September 5th as it’s a long trek from YVR to Egmont, BC.
If you’re flying out on Sunday September 7th, we recommend not booking a flight out of YVR any earlier than 4pm. We highly recommend making a ferry reservation to leave the sunshine coast on the morning of the 7th if you are driving to give yourself enough time to get back to the airport.
How long does it take to get from YVR to Egmont, BC?
YVR to Horseshoe Bay ~1 hour drive
Horseshoe Bay Ferry Terminal to Langdale Ferry Terminal ~40 min ferry ride
Langdale Ferry Terminal to Egmont ~1.5 hour drive
Total travel time from YVR to WCWL is ~4 hours (including the 30 min pre ferry wait time)
Things to do

- YOU MUST ARRIVE TO THE TERMINAL 30 MINUTES BEFORE YOUR RESERVED SAILING TIME

We would recommend reserving one on the way back on September 7 as well!
What if the Ferry Reservations are Sold Out?
Firstly, email Jennifer & Mike to let us know – maybe we can find someone for you to tag along with!
Secondly, consider the walk-on option
Or, you can always drive to the ferry ~2 hours earlier than the sailing you’re targeting – BC Ferries always leaves a certain % of each sailing for drive-up passengers. Just be prepared to wait a sailing or two!
