2 Best Sights in Bainbridge Island, The Puget Sound Islands

A boutique winery with stylish coastal decor, Fletcher Bay focuses on Bordeaux grapes along with Tempranillo and Sangiovese sourced from Washington State's Yakima and Walla Walla valleys. The casual, dog-friendly winery, set in the Coppertop Business Park, has a kids’ play area, an enclosed patio with a fireplace and heat lamps, and live music every Wednesday evening. There's also a tasting room right in town ( 500 Winslow Way E) and a rooftop wine garden above it, with live music Sunday evenings.

One of six giant trolls handmade from recycled materials by artist Thomas Dambo now lives in Bainbridge's Sakai Park, a little more than a mile off Highway 305 and eight minutes by car (about 30 minutes on foot) from the ferry terminal. Like the other five trolls in the Puget Sound area (Vashon Island, West Seattle, Issaquah, and Ballard) and Portland, Pia was built on-site in 2023 and will be there through at least 2026 but probably many years more. Her eyes are especially enchanting (and peaceful!). If you're into geocaching, look for the Adventure Lab that leads from the art museum to the Pia.
