We have two conveniently located PacWesty adventure hubs. Our Bainbridge Island hub is just a scenic ferry ride away from Seattle and serves as the perfect gateway to the wonders of the Olympic Peninsula and beyond.

Our Southern California hub is nestled in the heart of Palm Springs right off of HWY I-10, offering easy access to iconic desert destinations like Joshua Tree, the golden California coast, and the greater southwest.

If you’re coming from SeaTac Airport (SEA), you can take the Link light rail from Seatac Airport to the Pioneer Square Station and then walk to the Washington State Ferry terminal on the Seattle waterfront (Pier 52). You can also Uber or Taxi from the airport directly to the Seattle ferry terminal, which takes about 25 minutes.

The ferry leaves Seattle every 50 minutes or so and takes about 35 minutes to get to Bainbridge Island. Be sure to check the ferry schedule for the latest departure/arrival times. We offer free pick-up from the Bainbridge ferry terminal to our office, but please be sure to let your Adventure Coordinator know if you need to get picked up from the terminal.

Check out is at 12 pm on the first scheduled day of your trip, and the van is due to be checked back in between 9 am and 12 pm on the last scheduled day of your trip.

We can accommodate check-outs as early as 9 am for an additional fee of 25% of the daily rental rate for your van. We can also accommodate a late check in up to 4 pm for an additional fee of 25% of the daily rental rate for your van. If you return later than 4 pm on the final day of your reservation, you will be charged the full rental rate for an additional day.
