Increased ferry service starts later this month. The Washington State Ferries spring schedule begins Sunday, March 24, with additional service through June 15.

Beginning May 12, two-boat service will resume on the Coupeville-to-Port Townsend route, similar to two-boat service in 2012.

Washington State Ferries will trial late evening sailings on Fridays and Saturdays during the mid-May through mid-October peak period (10 p.m. from Port Townsend and 10:40 p.m. from Coupeville).
