Take a ferry to a quiet island

Coves, beaches and whales — oh my! Get away to beautiful and sleepy Vashon Island,  just a 20-minute ferry ride from Tacoma. I love the island vibe; the seclusion and serenity are almost tangible. The 37-square-mile island boasts postcard-worthy scenery at every turn; explore the island’s terrific public beaches, and pop in to its quaint shops and eateries. Put your phone on mute for this trip and prepare to make memories that will last a lifetime.
