There are car ferries and passenger ferries you can take to get from Victoria to Seattle. Simone Paget
- I live in Victoria, Canada, and I think ferries are the best way to get to Seattle, Washington.
- There are passenger ferries and car ferries, so I tried both to see which is more worth it.
As a long-time resident of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, I love to take weekend trips to Seattle.
Flying anywhere has been an absolute pain these last few years, and I'm not sure the delays and price jacks will get better anytime soon. But luckily, one of the easiest ways to get between Canada and the US is by ferry.
The Victoria Clipper is a popular, high-speed passenger ferry that goes from harbor to harbor. But many people from Victoria will also take their car on BC Ferries to Vancouver and drive two or three hours to Seattle.
I haven't been to Seattle since 2020, so I recently tried both options to see which I like better right now. If you're considering either ferry, here's what I liked and disliked about each one.
