While there is public transportation provided by Pierce County Transit, Gig Harbor visitors will need to do most of their exploring by boat, car, or on foot.
The town name suggests that this is a harbor town. Boaters can moor in the harbor itself, a part of Puget Sound, and explore the many shops, cafes, and galleries downtown.
Those coming in on four wheels can struggle to find parking in downtown, but once they do, exploring the town by foot is well worth it.
