Blakely Harbor

Drop anchor at Blakely Harbor and step into a slice of Pacific Northwest history — the haunting skeleton of an old generator building and rows of weathered pilings are remnants of a once-thriving mill operation. From the water, you can dinghy ashore to the 40-acre Blakely Harbor Park, which has a 1-mile loop trail and wildlife viewing platforms at the island's south end. It's a surprisingly rich stop with that rare combination of industrial heritage and quiet shoreline nature.
