SEATTLE — FRS Clipper is launching a seasonal holiday excursion service connecting downtown Seattle to Poulsbo, beginning Nov. 27.
They say the round-trip water route allows passengers to spend the day in Poulsbo and return to Seattle the same evening.
The weekend service will operate across four consecutive weekends through Dec. 20, using the Emerald Clipper catamaran.
The scenic route carries passengers through Puget Sound and Agate Pass directly to downtown Poulsbo’s waterfront.
The excursion leaves Seattle’s Pier 69 at 10 a.m. and arrives in Poulsbo at 11:30 a.m. The return trip departs Poulsbo at 4:30 p.m. and arrives back at Pier 69 at 6 p.m. Tickets start at $99 per passenger.
During the cruise, FRS Clipper says passengers will have access to holiday music, themed food and drinks, and family activities.
Visitors in Poulsbo will have 5 hours to explore downtown shops, bakeries, and restaurants near the waterfront dock.
Excursion sailings will take place on Nov. 27, 28, and 29, followed by Dec. 5, 6, 12, 13, 18, 19, and 20, 2026. Sailing schedules and ticket purchasing details are available here.
