You could take the ferry or a bus to Victoria, but with all the transportation and traffic involved, it could take hours. Get to your destination in 35 minutes with this one way seaplane flight from Vancouver. As you fly over Vancouver, capture prime aerial views of Canada Place, Burrard Inlet and Stanley Park. Fly south over the Salish Sea and the Gulf Islands, and then land downtown at Victoria’s Inner Harbour near the Fairmont Empress Hotel and BC Parliament Buildings.

Harbour Air used to be a good option for locals who needed to get to the island for work. I miss when HA was more about taking care of its customers with reasonable rates and exceptional service. Now it seems more about making money and gaining a profit from visiting tourists.
If you need to get to Victoria for business or work, helijet is hands down the better option as the price is similar (or cheaper) and weight restrictions aren’t as ridiculous.

it was quite stunning 9so is the price but it is worth doing once, just for the fantastic views). Also the only way to get between Victoria and Vancouver in a reasonable time.

Was a great option to travel from Vancouver harbor to Victoria harbor vs using the international airports or ferries. Clean and organized flight company

Nice view but seats were too cramped and not the half hour we paid for. Too bad, I expected more.

Best and fastest way to go to Victoria for the day. You don’t waste hours on the ferry. Airline is efficient.

! I was a little comprehensive about flying in a small plane but it was a very smooth flight
Also compared to a 3 hr ferry and bus trip from Vancouver to Victoria this was 35 minutes!

Take off and landing. It was a bit foggy on the take off but both the take off and landing were smooth!

This return day trip was to celebrate our 30th Wedding Anniversary and did not disappoint. There was a "smog" from the recent BC Fires further North at a certain height, but this did not distract from the flights where there were fantastic views for most of the time. The check-in at both Vancouver & Victoria were both so smooth and the complementary drinks appreciated. If time on Vancouver Island is limited, book early for a keen fare and enjoy the ride!
