Barnston is a small island, only about 2-3 square miles. You get to it by taking a 5-minute ferry ride across Parson's Channel to the island (See the "By boat" section above under "Get around"). The ferry is a barge operated by a small tug which serves Barnston Island and the ride is free. The trip is a very unique and a fun experience. Barnston Island is flat, with not much on there but farms. The island is under the landing circuit for Pitt Meadows airport just to the north, so you can frequently see small planes 1000 ft overhead It takes about an hour to bike around the whole island.
