Why should you take the Bainbridge Island Ferry

I go from Port Orchard to Seattle at least 4 times a month. I take my kids early in the morning to Seattle, a 45-minute ride in which I can take my car with me, drive around Seattle, and be home before 9:00 PM.

The ferry has lots of space, comfy seating, and a small food court if you want to buy coffee or snacks./Seattle

Departing from Seattle, you get to enjoy stunning vistas of Puget Sound and the city skyline, especially at night when the lights shimmer beautifully on the water. The ferry ride takes about 35 minutes, providing ample time to relax and appreciate the surroundings. Onboard, you’ll find comfortable seating and a food court offering snacks and beverages, enhancing the journey. It's not just a mode of transport; it's an experience. The ferry also allows vehicles, making it easy to bring your car along for further exploration on Bainbridge Island. Once you arrive on Bainbridge Island, you can uncover various attractions, including gorgeous parks, art galleries, and small boutique shops. Whether you're looking for a weekend getaway with your family or a scenic day trip, the Bainbridge Island Ferry makes it easy to take a break from the hustle and bustle of city life.
