About United States

The United States of America is a federal republic consisting of 50 states and a federal district. The United States is vast and diverse in terms of its geography, climate, and cultures. Travelling from the West coast of the States to the East coast means a journey of over two thousand miles and across several time zones. America lives up to its reputation as the land of dreams and a destination full of adventure waiting to surprise you. From Florida it’s quick and easy to sail over to Freeport on Grand Bahama Island. This daily service gets you to the Bahamas in no time using a high speed ferry which sails at a speed of around 32 knots.

About Vancouver Island

Vancouver Island sits just off the west coast of Canada in the Pacific Ocean, part of the British Columbia province. As the largest landmass on the west coast of North America, with a population of just over 750,000, Vancouver Island is a massive wilderness with one of the world’s most diverse ecosystems, scattered with fishing communities and villages along the craggy coastline. It’s also one of the best places to watch whales on the planet, while offering great kayaking opportunities in summer and excellent skiing in winter. The state capital, Victoria, stands proudly on the southern tip, close to the United States border, known for its British colonial architecture, fairy-tale Craigdarroch Castle and vibrantly coloured Butchart Gardens. The easiest way to reach Vancouver Island from mainland Canada is by ferry, with regular routes to ports on the north coast, all the way down to Victoria in the south. Ferries also link the island with the United States, with frequent crossings from Seattle.
