The ship that you are looking for is a taxi similar to taking a zeppelin or boat around the rest of Azeroth.
You can find it on the docks just past the boat with Nathanos Blightcaller and the BFA mission table. The boat isn't always there but should show up within a minute or so if it is not present. There is an NPC named Toranko at 58.05,64.95 on the docks in Dazar'alor that will confirm that you are in the right spot.
Just hop on and the boat will take you directly to The Echo Isles.
And remember when you get to the Echo Isles your're in old world content...you can use flying mounts.
I suggest heading off to the smaller islands if you're doing this earlier in the expansion as there are going to be a lot of people around killing all of the Mindless Trolls. The island marked as Zalazane's Fall has tons of mobs and hardly any other players.

Popped up for me once I hit revered with the Zandalari Empire.
You can start this quest in Dazar'alor near the map in The Great Seal from Rokhan .
This quest popped up for me immediately after Zandalar Forever! scenario and revered with the Zandalari Empire.
You need to go to the Echo Isles
- The easiest option is to use the ship in the Port of Zuldazar
It is near the main Horde The Banshee's Wail ship with Garona and Nathanos Blightcaller.
Can watch the quest video below if you can't find the ship.- Use portal to Orgrimmar in Dazar'alor and fly to the Echo Isles
