Hi,
I have seen some maps with a ferry route marked from both
Port Angeles and Port Townsend in Washington State U.S.A.,
to Victoria in British Columbia, Canada but can't find any
additional information.
My questions are; do vehicular ferries operate on these
routes?, how often?, what is the cost for car and
passenger? and what is the address and phone number of the
company that operates them.
Thanks.

Some carry vehicles and some do not. They are rather
infrequent, just a couple of sialings a day. I have the
schedules and info in the Getting Around section of my
website at http://www.vancouver.hm
My information is not up to date but here goes; The name of
the ferry runs between Victoria and Port Angeles is the
M.V. COHO and it is run by the Black Ball Ferry company
based in Port Angeles. There are a few sailings a day and
cars and RVs and foot passengers regularly make the 1.5-2hr
crossing. I am sure that if you were to go to some of the
torism pages on Victoria BC, you'd find a current schedule.
There are more sailings during the peak spring and summer
seasons.
There are also ferries connecting Anacortes island in
Washington state to Sidney-just north of Victoria and this
is also seasonal. Sorry that this info is only partial and
may not be up to date. Surely some others will help you out
here.
Have a good trip.

This is a good site that has links to the different Ferries
that service Victoria. Go there and on the bottom there is
a menu; select "How to get here" from that menu and then
scroll down for the links.

This is what you want.
My sister takes the Port Angeles ferry quite often when
coming up from Oregon. Just wanted to add that if you're
planning on taking the Coho in the summer or on a weekend,
get in the line early! Some people leave their car
overnight in line to ensure that they make the 10 o'clock
sailing. The staff usually will be able to tell you how
busy it is if you call.
