To get to Bainbridge Island you take the 30 min ferry (And that’s the best part!) In the ferry enjoy the best views of Seattle. When you arrive, grab some tasty ice cream or go wine tasting on Bainbridge Island. To return just hop back on for the short but gorgeous return ride, hopefully at sunset.
