Hummingbirds in season at Cufra Cliffs B&B, Thetis Island, BC

INFORMATION FOR OUR VISITORS

Some points about Thetis Island to be aware of:

  • Despite its small size, Thetis has an excellent ferry schedule, and regular float plane service from Vancouver to Thetis Island Marina.  (Links to the B.C. Ferries schedule for Thetis Island, and the float plane service websites, are found on the map page.)  We are happy to offer free pick-up and delivery from and to either the ferry or the marinas, as needed.  However, be aware that not having a car on Thetis can be a handicap, as there are no taxis, and the terrain is very hilly for walking and cycling.

  • If you are driving, please be aware that Thetis has no gas stations, so be sure to fill your tank before coming over.

  • There are two convenience stores on the island, one at each of the marinas.

  • Although the permanent population of Thetis is small, in the summer it can swell to between one and two thousand.  This places extra pressure on the ferries, so be sure to allow lots of time for the process of getting on or off the island - just in case.

  • For more information about the island, we can send you an e-mail version of the "Visitors' Guide to Thetis Island" (upon request), or you can have a look at our community website - www.thetisisland.net

  • WE HAVE PETS  (A large dog and three cats).  We discourage them from entering the cottage, but they have been known to get in occasionally and briefly.  If you have allergies to animals, you may need to take this into consideration.  However, if you like pets, you'll like it here....

  • But because we have pets, we must regretfully decline to accommodate yours.  It might work out well, but it could also be disastrous.  Not a holiday.
