Our water taxi services cover the B.C. Coast as well as the B.C. rivers.

Do you want to bring a kayak, canoe, mountain bike, scientific equipment, children or pets?

No problem, we can find a boat and a skipper that will match your requirements. We are friendly, fast, professional and respect your privacy.

You can contact Old School Marine for non-scheduled service. 

Through our sister company English Bay Launch, we also offer scheduled water taxi services from Vancouver to Bowen Island and return from Bowen Island to Vancouver.

Bowen Island water taxi departures launch from Snug Cove right beside the BC Ferry Terminal. Vancouver water taxis depart from Coal Harbour (False Creek) and from Granville Island. 

We have served celebrities in the past (including the Canucks), everyone knows us in the local logging industry and our water taxi services are also regularly used by professionals from Transport Canada.

Call us any time of the year to book your water taxi. We accept last-minute bookings.
