Washington is a state surrounded by water with many picturesque small towns. From Port Townsend to the islands, there’s no shortage of places to explore. Why not add one more to your must visit list? Gig Harbor is a town “tied to the water” and a great fall destination.
Gig Harbor is located along the southwest part of Puget Sound and is neighbours with Tacoma. It’s a place of “captivating beauty” and “uncommon splendor” filled with watercraft of all shapes and sizes, beautiful historic homes and businesses. All of which has the towering presence of Mount Rainier in the distance.
