Getting Here
Port Townsend Route
This is a finicky route in the winter, and a busy one in the summer. We love our local dock and the fine folks who keep the Washington State Ferry system running, but we do not recommend this route in the winter months for most guests.
If you would like to build Whidbey Island into your trip, we strongly recommend exploring Whidbey after your visit to Port Townsend. Make a reservation for the Port Townsend to Coupeville crossing. Arrive early, but know there’s a coffee shop about two blocks away downtown if you give yourself plenty of time. Fantastic thrift stores and impressive scenic views await on Whidbey Island!

Edmonds-Kingston
Recommended for most arriving from the general Puget Sound Region.
This is a route that we recommend to most travelers coming from the East and/or greater Seattle area. Lines can be long at peak times but there are amenities near the line including public restrooms and several restaurants and coffee shops. The Edmonds ferry runs larger boats with more frequent crossings than the Port Townsend route so reservations are not even available. Always prepare for a long line with ferries and consider packing snacks and car games.
