    Squalicum Harbor has moreage for visitors
  • Tip Rating:
  • The Port of Bellingham has the largest Boat harbor north of the Seattle Area. The Port of Bellingham also has a boat harbor in Blaine.
    This picture is of Squalicum Harbor, the Port of Bellingham's largest, on Bellingham Bay. They have short term moreage along with 3 boat ramps.
    There are a few restaurants to choose from, the regional Anthony's is a favorite, but the locally owned Marina is also very good.
    The US Coast Guard has a full service facility in the harbor as well.

    Bus System
    Bellingham has a pretty good bus system, if you're visiting and don't have a car. The station is downtown on Railroad Ave, where you can catch a bus to just about anywhere in Whatcom County. They are wheelchair accessible and if you're a cyclist, you can latch your bike to the front. 50 cents a ride. In Fairhaven they run a very cute bus modelled after a trolley. They only get crowded on the routes that serve the University during peak hours.
