*** This site has been redeveloped by the city, and our signs have been temporarily taken down. However, it is still available, according to the parks department.
The Oak Harbor Police Department is very supportive of our site, which has been refurbished. However, they would like people to make reservations as there is a lot of traffic from the street.
Please follow this link to reserve.
Whidbey Island’s largest city, Oak Harbor, hosts a 30-acre sprawling grassy park and beach that lie adjacent to the city’s original downtown commercial area. The park includes a marina, picnic areas, fishing dock, wading pools, barbecue area, showers, RV and tenting areas. The Cascadia Marine Trail campsite is well-landscaped.

Natural History: The Skwdab subgroup of the Skagit tribe lived in this area and named it Klatoletsche. In 1983, a burial mound of bone and clamshells was discovered in downtown Oak Harbor. These mounds lay within rock cairns suggesting the burial of a chief or other important person. Tidal erosion caused their exposure and some bones date back nearly 10,000 years.
