My First encounter with the Alaskan ⛴️ system. As a "walk-on". It was All Good. Smiles 2The Ship Line Company. Bathroom Clean and accessable. 🚿 Showers too. 1 Dollar gets a towel/washcloth an a wee-bit of a bar of soap. I set up my New Tent. As others set up tents (inside or outside). All persons and families respectful of One a Nother. As it should be in LIFE. Also: random picture - taking - a must of mountains, Sea, stuff.

When I was younger and still lived in Alaska, I used to ride the ferry back and forth from Bellingham to Ketchikan. Stopping here for a quick visit definitely brought back memories of being a child. I did not ride the ferry this trip, but enjoyed looking around. One of these days I'll travel the inside passage again and see how much has changed.

Orca's, humpback's, history, glaciers, and a chance at the aurora borealis at sea.

My family is considering a ferry trip. Is it ever possible to board the ferry when in Bham to check it out? That would help us decide.

Melanie Rieck | Aug 11, 2022

They have a great website and wonderful customer service, if you are planning to drive on, prior reservations are required, if a walk-on without berth it's cheapest. If you need a berth, best to reserve it ahead of your sailing date. I hope this helps! Have a great time!

where is your Northern terminus ? Sitka or skagway

Hello! I am not an expect by all means. I rode one way to Sitka. I know the ferry continued to Kake. I think that may be the farthest north the ferry might go. With Covid happening, the schedule is more limited that previous. Not all destinations are all the time. Definitely checking with the Alaska Marine Highway System will be exact in giving answers.

We are bringing a car on the AK ferry Bellingham to Haines in July. What are Canadian and US border requirements for us to drive home to Fairbanks? Is a COVID test &72 hour waiting period required? Are COVID tests available on the ferry?

I would get a Covid-19 test just before boarding and last time I heard you could get through Canada but you can't stop and must drive straight through but you better contact the Canadian authorities

If you can't afford a cabin where can you sleep?

You can sleep in a chair in the lounges....the best option is bring a warm sleeping bag and sleep up top under the cover of the solarium. You can also pitch a tent up there but be sure yo weigh it down with gear as it gets windy and there is no way to tie the tent down.

Are there storage lockers at the terminal in Bellingham?

Tammie Benzinger | Aug 11, 2022
Tammie Benzinger | Aug 12, 2022

Yes, we found the lockers. These are medium large and are located outside the terminal, in the parking lot near the bus area. You could fit 1 roller board medium large or one large duffle bag in a single locker. We didn't have a chance to investigate but the Amtrak station is also nearby and potentially also has luggage storage?
