Whatcom Creek Waterway

Whatcom Creek Waterway is a 4-mile freshwater stream flowing west from Lake Whatcom before emptying into Bellingham Bay, making it a genuinely interesting spot to drop anchor and explore. The creek cuts right through Bellingham, putting you within reach of the city's waterfront scene and the broader bay. It's a rare chance to sit at the junction of a lake-fed creek and saltwater bay, with the urban fabric of Bellingham right on your doorstep.
