San Juan Islands in Washington State. Recreational activities, tourist services, wildlife, spectacular scenery and many amenities abound in the Gulf Islands. A mecca for tourists, the islands also offer an idyllic lifestyle to their permanent residents.
Access to the Gulf Islands is provided by BC Ferries for all types of vehicles and foot passengers, via terminals on Vancouver Island or terminals serving Vancouver and the mainland. Whether you are a casual visitor wanting information on available services or a previous visitor now interested in owning a "piece of paradise," find out what each Gulf Island has to offer.
