About Denman Island Summer Bus Service 2022
The Denman Island Bus Service (DIBS) runs a cross-island 16-passenger summer visitor bus between the Denman West terminal (arriving from Buckley Bay) and Gravelly Bay terminal (going to Hornby Island).
- Runs between July 1st to Sept. 5 (Labour Day)
- Operates Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and holiday Mondays.
- Starts at 10 AM and runs until 6:00 PM, terminating at Denman West.
- Bus runs continuously on its own schedule, arriving at terminals every forty-five minutes. The reason for this is that the ferries are often in shuttle mode which makes it difficult to coordinate with their schedule.
- Bus stops only for pickups and drop offs. It does not wait at stops.
- One way, terminal to terminal is about twenty minutes.
- Fare is $2. Kids under 5 are free.
- Bikes are loaded in-board with passenger.
- Bus leaves Denman West and travels up Denman Road to East Road to Gravelly Bay, then return via Macfarlane Rd. and Lacon Rd.
- Regular stops include:
- Downtown Denman (Activity Centre & Museum
- Guest House Hostel and Bistro
- Saturday Denman Farmer’s Market
- May be ride-hailed and will drop off at any point along the route at driver discretion.
Connections may be made to the Hornby Bus Service at Shingle Spit. Connections to Courtenay and Comox using public transit may be made at Buckley Bay via the Fanny Bay No. 10. Buckley Bay is also a regular drop off for the Island Link Bus , running between Victoria and Campbell River and all points in between.
