Guide

Approach and anchoring

Approach Gig Harbor from Colvos Passage, keeping mid-channel between the sandspit on the east and the west shore. The entrance narrows to under 100 metres with a 3-metre channel down the middle and strong tidal flow. Inside the basin holds 5 to 9 metres. Watch for paddleboard traffic at the entrance in summer.

Practical

About 100 berths, some covered. Fresh water, heads with showers, gated 24-hour parking. Long-term storage on site. No fuel berth at the marina itself; nearest diesel is at Arabella's Landing further into the harbour.
