K	K on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Staff were pretty rude to me. As I was paying I asked if the cost covered one way or both ways and the female employee said you'll have to pay again on the way back so I said oh okay, then both the male and female employees laughed and said she was just kidding it covered both ways. I don't get the need to make a joke of that but okay no problem. When I was coming back to get on the boat to head back to nanaimo I could see everyone just walking on the boat so as I approached I just smiled and nodded at the two employees sitting by the boat and the male employee said wait its another $10 to get back on so I stopped and just looked dumbfounded then they both laughed and said no it's fine just get on the boat. I get that they were trying to have fun with people while working but as my first time using this service I found it pretty rude they were making fun of the fact I didn't know if I had to pay both ways. I felt very embarrassed because of them laughing at me in front of everyone. I will definitely be going back to Newcastle so I will have to use this ferry again so hopefully future experiences will be better.

T	TJB on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Aug 21/2108. The ferry ride over to Newcastle Island is a short ride.I’m sure the kid in all of us will like the little poke boat ferry.The schedule is flexible and if you miss one another one is to fallow.I shouldn’t be even mentioning this but we have a new season in Canada and it’s called Smoke and fires season.The new norm for our province is to put up with forest fires throughout the province and with it thick smoke.As of this date we have so many fires,530 as of this date and our visibility in Nanaimo visibly is less than 1 mile at this date. Newcastle Island normally offers some spectacle views.I’ve visited Newcastle a few times.Snuneymuxw First Nation people permits the use of a non motorized bikes on the island. This time I circumvented the island,with numerous stops for pictures.This took me about me about 3.5 hrs.I’m sure you could do this easily in about 1.5 hrs.The maintenance guys use quads to service the island,given that if you stick to the wide trails you should have no problem.Be aware other people use the trail so share the trail,be nice. Ride safe and have fun.
D	Dav1d Brad1ey on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It was a fine experience on the ferry. The boat captain supplied us masks as they were mandatory and we had forgotten ours. It's a very short trip and reasonably priced for how good the experience was at Newcastle. I highly recommend going to Jeff's kayak and bike rental just on the coast of the island. Do not go anywhere else for kayak rentals!

R	Richard James Milne on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I've been using the Newcastle Ferry for 4 years and I have always been impressed with the service. The ferries are well maintained, clean, and lots of room. I always enjoy to get away for a day on Newcastle Island to explore. A very inexpensive way to spend an entire day. At times, when the entire family gets together, we spend the night or two so we take our camping gear, tents, & mountain bikes. The friendly Staff, Captain and Crew make it easy as they carefully load and unload our property from the ferry for us. Also, on Newcastle there are wheel barrels to use to get your stuff to the campsites if you wish. For 2020 they have a made it mandatory to wear masks on the Ferries.
