Ferry from Seattle to Bremerton
Seattle > Washington > United States
After attending a convention in Seattle and having nothing better to do than to explore the Olympic Peninsula, I decided to hail a vehicle ferry bound for Bremerton.
In times past my family and I have sailed this same route, traversing Puget Sound or the Straits of Juan De Fuca from one destination to another. Nearly one year after this ferry ride my family and I would embark from Seattle on a cruise through Alaska’s Inside Passage.
Besides providing smooth transportation to destinations that might have otherwise required many hours of driving, the ferry briefly disentangles man and vehicle from the complex maze of streets and buildings and floats them out onto the water for an abstracted view of bussling civilization.
I’d Rather be Sailing
Riding a vehicle ferry isn’t as serene as cruising on a sailboat, but the view is about the same. However, sailing is a more intimate experience more intent on being here than getting there.
The Space Needle
On the way out are splendid views of downtown and the Space Needle. Then the city receded to fine detail and our attention was drawn to the approaching islands and Olympia Peninsula.
On the way in to Bremerton we passed scenic Bainbridge Island.
