This option was convenient & relaxing that you could stay in your seat & be served. The Clipper crew came to your seat and took your order & served you food & drinks if you ordered from their on-board cafe, just like on an airplane. We also really liked the great service found on the Victoria Clipper. Since we were on a trip kid-free, we enjoyed sitting in the airline seating section so we could enjoy some quiet time to read as we traveled through the islands on our way to Victoria. The bottom floor was a combination of the table seating along with more airline style seating in the front half of the boat (but with a bit more legroom than a typical airline seat). It was a beautiful view as we left Victoria to be able to see the Inner Harbour and all the buildings from the back of the boat. On the 2nd floor, there was also a deck where you could go outside to get some pictures or just enjoy cruising through the Puget Sound and Straits of Juan de Fuca. With these tables, if the boat was really full, just know that they do need to fill in all the spots, so if there is room at the table, then other people may be sitting with you (like on a train), but it would be a fun way to pass the time chatting with others. I think the tables would definitely make great options for families to be able to have some more space & get out coloring books, a few toys, etc. The top floor also has some nice views from that 2nd level. The Clipper has 2 floors on the catamaran boat – the top floor is filled with tables which would be great for families. There are either 4 or 6 seats grouped together around a table, which would make it nice for eating, playing games and more. Even though we only spent one night, we felt like this schedule really made it feel like 2 full days in Victoria. We liked the times they traveled as it was 8am – 10:45am & then we departed the next day at 5pm to arrive at 7:45pm in Seattle. The trip to Victoria takes about 2 hours and 45 minutes, going through the Puget Sound & Straits of Juan de Fuca. The Victoria Clipper is a passenger only ferry service that travels year-round to Victoria, as well as traveling to the San Juan Islands seasonally. Not only is the location convenient to board the boat, but the Clipper is a nice, comfortable way to make your way to Victoria. The Victoria Clipper is a great option for those in the Puget Sound area or if you’re coming up from Oregon or out of state as it takes off right out of Seattle on the waterfront. My husband and I recently headed up to Victoria and after considering all the options of travel to Victoria, we decided upon the Victoria Clipper. If you’re thinking of heading up to Victoria, BC, you’ll definitely want to consider traveling on the Victoria Clipper as it’s based right out of Seattle & is a very convenient option for heading up to Victoria.
