AWESOME for a walk on the Beach
Either a nice walk on the beach or a nice walk in the park. Very Clean and easy to use.

| Camping: |
| This is a day-use park, but one water trail campsite is available only to campers who arrive at the park by human-powered watercraft. The campsite is available on a first-come, first-served basis, and a primitive camping fee applies. There is one restroom (ADA). |
| Picnicking: |
| The park offers one kitchen shelter, reservable by calling (888) CAMPOUT or (888) 226-7688 (ask for the kitchen shelter on Fort Ebey's inventory). Four sheltered and nine unsheltered picnic tables are available first-come, first-served. |
| Boating: |
| Most non-motorized activities are available. |
| History of the Area: |
| The park and other island features were named during the Vancouver Expedition of 1792. Master Joseph Whidbey circumnavigated the island, and Vancouver named it in his honor. |
