The Southworth ferry is only minutes from our house and it is a spectacular scenic ride across the Puget Sound to West Seattle. If you are from out of town this is a "must do" kinda thing - it is the best way to get to Seattle!

Food scene
Port Orchard & Gig Harbor are the two closest places with great restaurants. But if you take the ferry into Seattle that opens up a ton of options. I’m suggesting just a few local places that I hope you will enjoy…
When in Seattle, you HAVE to visit this iconic restaurant and be sure to save a few extra fries and walk around the side and feed the seagulls! It is actually encouraged - (unlike at our house haha)

We love the margaritas, food and people at this authentic Mexican restaurant in Port Orchard. The original location is also in Gig Harbor which is not far and might be worth the drive to check out the great little town before dinner!
