Island Express Charters Inc. is located at Skyline Marina in beautiful Anacortes WA. The Island Express I & II are located on the “old fuel dock” in Skyline Marina. Both our office and vessels are conveniently located close to the marina forefront.

Free parking at the Marina is available but limited. There are two pay lots with ample space available as well. Vouchers to park in the Skyline Marina lot are available through us or through the Marina office. Please follow signage while loading and unloading, or traveling through out the marina grounds. See driving directions and maps below. For rates see our Fares page.

Skyline Marina offers many amenities that make it the ideal homeport for the Island Express I & II. The location of the marina allows us to offer fast reliable transportation throughout the San Juan Islands.

The Island Express is also able to depart and return from the beach at Washington Park in Anacortes. The park is located on the northwestern corner of Fidalgo Island, just beyond the Washington State Ferry docks and at the end of Sunset Avenue. Washington Park offers overnight parking for $5/day with a 14 day maximum stay.

All of these options make the Island Express the ideal means for water transportation throughout the San Juan Islands.
