Drivers are encouraged to make advanced reservations for the busy Memorial Day weekend (May 21-26) if planning to travel to the San Juan Islands. Two weeks in advance of the holiday weekend, and beginning at 7 a.m. on Thursday, May 7 through Tuesday, May 12, Washington State Ferries is scheduled to release the second tier of vehicle space, or 30 percent of vessel capacity, on all departures to the San Juan Islands.

Reservations are highly recommended for the San Juan Islands and Sidney, B.C. routes as well as the Port Townsend/Coupeville ferry route. Reservation holders will be prioritized on all departures.  Drivers without reservations will be loaded as space allows and may have to wait due to heavy vehicle traffic.

The final release of vehicle space to the San Juan Islands for the Memorial Day weekend will be issued two days prior to the holiday weekend.  Please reserve on line at www.takeaferry.com or by calling 511.
