!!Our ferry, the Whatcom Chief will be at dry dock from April 26th through May 11, 2025

Dry dock is a special time of year for Islanders and guests alike. During dry dock the Whatcom Chief (our vehicle ferry) is taken out of service for maintenance and repairs. Whatcom County supplies a passenger only ferry while the Whatcom Chief is away.

Typically there is a parking area on the mainland side and a regularly scheduled passenger shuttle on the island. Many Islanders leave one car on each side during this time though many of them use the shuttle, walk or get rides from willing Islanders.

With far fewer cars traveling the island, there is more quiet and tranquility. The passenger only ferry gets us out of our cars on Gooseberry Point to enjoy the fresh air and scenery as we wait for the ferry. Once aboard the ferry we are able to sit on top and truly enjoy the short trip across Hale Passage. It is indeed a special time on the island.


Bring your kayaks or row boat and put in across the street - easy access, and nearby! The weather and wind conditions change frequently so be aware and stay safe!
