Had lunch here. Excellent fish and chips, nice outside deck to sit on. The fish was particularly tasty. The chips were more ordinary but abundant. Worth the trip out.

Great little marina with a well stocked store. The waitlist for a full time slip is 5 years, but they have mooring balls for transients. There is a great craft beer selection and a self-serve soft serve machine ($2 if I recall correctly). Great place to watch the sunset. You can also rent kayaks to get a closer look at the wildlife.

Uhh... I hesitate to write my true feelings, because then B.H. will become too popular --- and the kitsch will be destroyed.

Kate (manager) is wonderful, and staff are innocent and polite, usually college students on summer break.. The store is like a Ma & Pa grocery from 50 yrs ago. The deli bar has the BEST fish and chips. The wine is by the bottle or by the glass, and the selection is great. There is beer on tap.

Having a beer/wine out on the dock is perfect Americana. And ... there is live music on Fri. nite during the summer.

We come by small boat from nearby Harstine. It is l-a-a-a-aid back.

It is the best kept secret. Don't tell anybody. BTW, if you visit, check out the 6x6 vertical post in the store just as you walk in: you'll see marks showing the high tides over the years. In Dec. 2022, the king tide seriously flooded the store with salt water.

We had the opportunity to enjoy a boat ride from Olympia, WA. We stopped at the Boston Harbor Marina. It was a great place to stop. Yummy ice cream, clean bathrooms and dog friendly. The Puget Sound is a wonderful place when it is filled with sunshine. Some of the activities include picnic, eating, boating, and kayaking.

They have a new ice cream machine with chocolate, twist or vanilla (self-swirl as well!). The store is also well stocked with gummy cheeseburgers, hotdogs and pizzas (my wife and daughter's favorites).
Boston Harbour is great for kayak rentals, paddle boards, looking at boats, there's a small beach as well.

The dock dogs are also top notch and love a good ball toss.

We ended up here quite late at night seeking the mythical bioluminsecent phytoplankton in the water that some locals had told us about in downtown Olympia. Skeptical when they sent us to "Boston Harbor," we were pleasantly surprised that Google Maps got us there with only one wrong turn. Though the bar and restaurant were closed, there was a group of friendly locals enjoying cocktails during the late-night summer twilight. Even better, we splashed around at the end of the dock and saw the amazing glow-in-the-dark water show we had been seeking. Would love to come back when everything was open. A beautiful location!

The marina includes a store, boat mooring, fuel dock, rental kayaks and stand up paddle boards. There is also a small public beach and a boat launch. Life jackets are provided for small children and the dock is open for a leisurely stroll among the boats. Across the street is a charming rental space for anyone interested in spending some extra time at this special spot. During the summer, there are Friday night beer b ques and Sunday breakfast on the dock. Fresh seafood can also be purchased depending on availiability.

New "rustic" (or budget) seating area in the back with beer on tap and some food items is a big improvement from before. New updated bathrooms are a big plus too. Will make their Friday night beer tasting and Bbq and the Sunday brunch.
