Traveling to Hornby Island involves a 'double ferry shuffle' which is presented as part of the adventure. The process includes a ferry from Buckley Bay to Denman Island, followed by a drive across Denman to another ferry terminal for the final leg to Hornby. The speaker emphasizes that getting to the ferry terminal early is essential due to high demand.
“So getting to Hornby isn't easy. It requires a bit of dedication and a double ferry shuffle. So making the journey is part of the adventure.”
“So once you get to Buckley Bay, you don't take a short 10 minute ferry across to Denman Island. You drive across that island. It's a quick 15 minute drive to the ferry terminal.”
“So, yeah, the ferry here is extremely busy. So you want to get there at least an hour before. Ideally, you know, an hour and a half.”
