Bainbridge Island & the Ferry

Thirty-five minutes across Puget Sound, and the skyline from the water.

From $675 for the vehicle A gentle half day

The Washington State Ferry from Colman Dock takes about thirty-five minutes across open water, and the view back at the skyline from the stern is the one people photograph and then keep. Winslow's main street runs a few blocks up from the dock.

The timetable runs this day, not us — sailings are every fifty to seventy minutes and missing one costs an hour. We build the whole trip backwards from the return you need, and we will tell you whether walking on or driving on is the better call for your party.

What you see

  • The crossing, both ways, on the outside deck
  • Winslow — bookshop, bakeries, a distillery, the museum
  • The Japanese American Exclusion Memorial, a short walk from the dock
  • Bloedel Reserve's 150 acres of gardens, if you want more than the town

Worth knowing before you book

  • The vehicle's ferry fare is in the price. Walk-on foot passenger fares, if we walk on instead, are a few dollars each and we will tell you when that is cheaper.
