Fulford Harbour
A ferry village at the southern tip of Salt Spring Island, with a few colourful shops and cafés, and a 19th-century stone St. Paul's Church nearby.
Fulford Harbour is the ferry terminal for crossings from Swartz Bay near Victoria (about 35 minutes). The small village beside the dock has just one short street, with cafés, a general store and craft shops in colourful wooden houses, making it a good place to wander while waiting for the ferry. About 500 metres north of the harbour is the stone St. Paul's Church, built in the 1880s by Indigenous people and early settlers together. Beside it, Drummond Park beach has an Indigenous rock carving in the shape of a seal. From Fulford Harbour, you can head south to Ruckle Provincial Park and the cheese farm, and north it is about 15 minutes to Ganges. Ferries are busy in peak season, so arrive at the dock early.
