Selling a blouse in Nanaimo
Nanaimo is the second city of the island and the main ferry crossing point to the mainland, built on a harbour with a coal-mining past. It is a jumping-off point for the rest of the island, and the marine economy here is ordinary rather than recreational.

The ferry terminals and the harbour are the landmarks everyone uses. If either of you is crossing from the mainland, build the sailing schedule into the arrangement rather than treating it as a short drive.
