VI. B. 2. Regional Focus - Bainbridge Island |
Bainbridge Island has several marinas, most of which are concentrated in Eagle Harbor, a high water-traffic area with a variety of commercial and recreational overwater structures (Figure VI-12). Eagle Harbor also houses a WSDOT ferry terminal and a ferry maintenance facility (Figure VI-13). Other areas with significant concentrations of overwater structures include Port Madison Bay (FigureVI-14), Fletcher Bay, and Manzanita Bay. Open-water moorages are more common on the western shorelines of Bainbridge and in protected embayments. They generally consist of mooring buoys, located just outside of the intertidal zone, and floating docks (Figure VI-15).
