Clinton terminal

Peak traffic volumes begin with the first morning departure through about the 10:00 am sailing. For this time period, an advance arrival of 30-45 minutes ahead is recommended for vehicle traffic. For non-peak travel, a minimum of 20 minutes in advance is suggested.

Walk-on passengers should arrive at least 10 minutes prior to sailing.

Highway 525 runs through Clinton to the ferry terminal. There is one small lot to the right of the tollbooths. There is a free Park-n-Ride lot available on Deer Lake Rd. behind the Post Office about a 1/2 mile north off Highway 525 with free bus service to the ferry during normal bus service hours. Another pay lot is located behind Simmon’s Garage also about ½ mile from the tollbooths. The paid parking lot near the tollbooth and the daily/monthly parking is 1/2 block from terminal.

Island Transit provides free service on Whidbey Island, for information on connections between the Park-n-Ride lot and the ferry terminal check Island Transit.

There is no payment for passengers or bicycles traveling from Clinton to Mukilteo. Bicyclists may bypass the line of vehicle traffic to get onto the ferry dock. They do not need to stop at the tollbooth. Bicyclists should arrive 20 minutes prior to departure time to be loaded at the beginning of loading process. If a bicyclist arrives after vehicle loading has begun, he or she will be loaded at the end of the load. Riders should walk their bikes on and off the ferry to avoid injuring passengers. There is one rack at the terminal, which holds 8 bikes.
