Washington State Department of Transportation Ferries Division Assistant Secretary David Mosely announced on April 30:
The peak season begins Saturday, May 1 at WSF with an additional 25 percent surcharge applied to full fare vehicle/driver tickets. The peak season surcharge does not affect passenger fares or frequent user multi-ride fares, except on the Anacortes/San Juan routes.
Summer parking rates at Anacortes also go into effect on May 1. On the Anacortes/San Juan routes passenger single fares are increased 20 percent during the peak season and vehicle/driver fares go up 35 percent. These routes also have day-of-the-week pricing, making travel less expensive from Sunday through Tuesday. For more information, please visit wsdot.wa.gov/ferries/fares
