Public Transportation to North Pacific Cannery
We are so excited to announce that we will have Bus Service out to our site this summer!!! Starting May 16th with weekend service before extending out to 7 days a week in late June!
The three trips a day will get you to the Cannery an hour before tours begin at 11 and 2 and are a $25 round trip leaving from Inn on the Harbour and Bank of Montreal.
We are so grateful to everyone who has worked so hard to make this happen. It has easily been our number one request from guests since bus service to the cannery ended in 2020 and we're looking forward to seeing all of you for whom this makes our site that much more accessible!
