About the Waterfront Station Northbound – Lonsdale Quay Northbound crossing
Downtown Vancouver to North Vancouver in 12 minutes, from a terminal built into Waterfront Station where the SkyTrain, the West Coast Express and the bus loop all meet.
Arriving for the first sailing
A detail worth knowing: the doors at Waterfront Station that lead down to the SeaBus open only ten minutes before the first departure. Getting there half an hour early leaves you waiting on the wrong side of them.
Frequency through the day
Northbound boats leave every 15 minutes from 06.01, then every 10 minutes from 07.15 to 09.45, 15 again until mid-afternoon, 10 minutes from 15.15 to 18.45, 15 until 21.16 and 30 after that. Saturday starts at 06.16 on half-hourly gaps before settling into 15 minutes from 07.16. Sunday and holidays begin at 08.16.
The last one
Final northbound sailing is 01.22 Monday to Saturday, 23.22 on Sundays and holidays. Each vessel seats 395. The service is planned by TransLink and operated by Coast Mountain Bus Company, which also runs 96% of Metro Vancouver's bus network.
