Quartermaster Harbor

Quartermaster Harbor, situated in Vashon Island, Washington state, offers a tranquil retreat within southern Puget Sound, sheltered between Vashon and Maury Islands. With its shallow, shellfish-rich waters and absence of commercial marine traffic, it provides an idyllic setting for maritime activities. Notable attractions include its role as a primary spawning ground for Pacific herring and surf smelt, alongside hosting the Quartermaster Yacht Club and Marina, catering to a diverse array of private vessels. Additionally, it serves as the main training ground for Vashon Island Junior Crew and presents a rewarding 5-mile sea kayaking experience. The harbor's nightlife is enlivened by sightings of orcas, while the Fourth of July brings a spectacular fireworks display after a pandemic-induced hiatus. Complementing these natural wonders, Vashon Island boasts a thriving culinary scene, featuring an abundance of restaurants, shops, and unique establishments such as the Ruby Brink—a multifaceted venue combining a bar, butcher shop, and restaurant. Moreover, visitors can explore the island's agricultural richness through its roadside honor-system farm stands, adding to the charm of this enchanting destination.
