Canadian ferry routes on the map
As the map illustrates, the ferry system in Canada is divided into two massive coastal networks and a unique inland system. In the west, the British Columbia South Coast operates one of the busiest car-ferry fleets in the world, while the east is home to the rugged crossings of Atlantic Canada. Because of the country’s vast scale, these ferries aren't just for sightseeing; they are vital highway links that connect the mainland to major hubs like Vancouver Island, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland.
