Travel & Accommodations
Washington State Ferries
The most popular way to reach Orcas Island. Ferries depart from Anacortes, WA and the ride is approximately 75 minutes.
Tip: We recommend making a vehicle reservation in advance, especially during peak season. Walk-on passengers do not need reservations.
By Air
Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) is the nearest major airport, about 90 miles south of the Anacortes ferry terminal (~2 hour drive).
Bellingham International Airport (BLI) is closer at ~50 miles north, with regional flights from several cities.
Kenmore Air offers scenic seaplane flights directly to Orcas Island from Seattle's Lake Union or Boeing Field.
Getting Around the Island
Orcas Island is hilly and spread out — we recommend bringing a car on the ferry or arranging a rental. Rideshare services are limited on the island.
We will also be providing a shuttle between select accommodations and the venue on the wedding day.
