THE FERRY
Just 45 minutes from Anacortes on the Washington State Ferries, Lopez Island is the first ferry stop into the San Juans. The tranquility of the ferry is a prelude to what you can expect of the island. The beauty and the friendly island feeling are what keep visitors coming back year after year.
To get to the San Juan Island ferry terminal, visitors can take Interstate 5 to the Burlington (230) exit. Turn west on Highway 20 until you reach Anacortes. Follow the signs to the ferry landing. In the summer be sure that you arrive at least 2 hours early to make sure that you catch the ferry you had in mind.
