    Answer 2

    The easiest cheap way is BC Ferries, from Tsawwassen or Horseshoe Bay.

    Steps:

    (Tsawwassen ferry)

    • Skytrain to Bridgeport station, bus to Tsawwassen ferry.
    • Take ferry to Duke Point, Nanaimo.

    (Horseshoe Bay ferry)

    • Skytrain (2 zone ticket) from Vancouver airport to Vancouver Central City station.
    • Bus to Horseshoe Bay
    • Ferry to Departure Bay, Nanaimo

    (source: I've been to both Vancouver terminals, and taken the ferry to Nanaimo and back twice, both times from Horseshoe Bay).

    There are flights (check kayak.com) but the ferry will be considerably cheaper.
