Shilshole Bay Marina
Shilshole Bay Marina is one of the largest boating communities on the West Coast, home to over 1,400 monthly and live-aboard moorage customers tucked along Puget Sound just northwest of Seattle. You can drop anchor offshore and take in sweeping views of the Olympic Mountains across the water. The nearby stretch of Golden Gardens Park and the laid-back Ballard neighborhood are well worth the trip ashore.
