About the terminal

At the end of a residential street in West Seattle, this dock works the network's only three-cornered service: boats cross to Vashon Island in 20 minutes and carry on to Southworth on the Kitsap Peninsula in 40, with some sailings calling at both. Both destinations are charged from this end, and the boats coming back carry no fare. Vashon has no bridge, which makes this its principal link to the city; the island is about 6 km off, and Colman Dock some 10 km up the shore.
