About the Historic Plover Ferry
The Historic Plover Ferry, located at 235 Marine Drive in Blaine, Washington, is a beloved tourist attraction that offers rides on Washington's oldest foot passenger ferry, the MV Plover. Operated by the nonprofit Drayton Harbor Maritime, the Plover takes passengers on a scenic 20-minute journey between Blaine Harbor Marina and Semiahmoo Resort Wharf. Children can even have the chance to be "Captain for the Day" and steer the ferry. The Plover is part of the Coast Millennium Trail and allows passengers with bicycles on board. The ferry's two-person crew provides commentary on the history and restoration of the vessel, making the ride an educational experience. The ferry operates from Memorial Day to Labor Day weekend, with fares by donation. Visitors can expect to see a variety of wildlife and stunning views of the surrounding area during the cruise. The restoration of the Plover, built in 1944 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, is currently underway, with the hope of a triumphant return to service in 2024. The Plover Passenger Ferry is a significant part of Blaine's maritime history and a must-see attraction for locals and tourists alike.

Reviews of Historic Plover Ferry
"Today my family got to ride this historic ferry. We left from the Semihamoo ferry dock behind the resort. It does a great loop around the marina and Drayton harbor, saw tons of birds, seals, eagles, and sailboats. 25 or so min. Cruz to Blaine marina. Great historic ferry. Great staff. You can get a chance to drive the boat and receive a capt. Certificate. Fun for the kids. 1hr round trip. Always on time. Try it out."
"Psalms119:78 Let the proud be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without a cause: but I will meditate in thy precepts. Psalms119:79 Let those that fear thee turn unto me, and those that have known thy testimonies. Psalms119:80 Let my heart be sound in thy statutes; that I be not ashamed."
"This is a charming 20-minute ferry ride from Blaine to Semiahmoo, $5 round trip. You can see harbor seals, seagulls, and cormorants, and kids get a chance to drive the boat. Well worth the hour."
"Plover Ferry runs all summer from Blaine Marina to Semiahmoo resort area and back. It's fun and quite a nice ride and the captain slows down so you can view the sea lions as they sun themselves on the breakwater. A young host tells you the history of the little ferry which is quite interesting. Lots of fun for kids. There is a fee required that also covers the return trip."
"From the marina at Blaine to the Semiahmoo Spit is about a 20 minute ride on the oldest operating ferry. It only $5. per person and well worth it. The captain is charming with his able first mate. The ferry runs every hour from noon to 8pm from Blaine and on the half hour from Semiahmoo till 7:30pm. Beautiful scenic views across the bay! Mt. Baker, White Rock, Canada, lounging seals and nesting sea birds are some of the highlights. Semiahmoo Marina offers gift shop, lunch options, seating on the marina, beach area, meandering piers and a free telescopic viewer that brings the mountains or city right up close! A fun diversion for an afternoon!"
