Saturday, May 18 - Salt Spring Island

After reading the ferry schedule we decided that Mayne Island would require too much ferry time, and that Salt Spring might work out better.

Tracy has done the research:

We could catch the ferry to Salt Spring at 9am from Swartz Bay to Fulford Harbour. We would likely want to arrive at the terminal by 8am to be sure to get on. The crossing is only 35 min. We could even stop by the famous, Saturday Salt Spring market which is open from 8:30-4pm before heading off on a hike! There is also a fabulous restaurant at Fulford Harbour by the ferry terminal called Rock Salt. We could park our vehicles in the ferry line about an hour in advance of the sailing and enjoy a nice lunch/afternoon snack. The return times in the afternoon are 1:50 or 3:50.

Send me a note if you plan to go. We want to plan for more people in fewer vehicles.
