The home town flavor of this community is displayed in its annual celebrations.The Irish paint the town green in March, in April, during the Holland Happening Celebration, the Dutch fill the town with tulips and Fourth of July is celebrated the old fashioned way with a parade, carnival and fireworks. The Whidbey Island Marathon graces the roads of Oak Harbor at the beginning of April while in July, Whidbey Island Race Week, considered one of the top 20 yachting regattas in the world, is held. Oak Harbor boasts a beautiful, modern marina complete with moorage slips, gas dock, launching ramp and monorail crane operable at any tide. Cornet Bay Marina, near Deception Pass State Park, also offers moorage for boating, fishing or touring. Whether arriving by boat or over Deception Pass Bridge, 15 minutes north of Oak Harbor, don’t miss the pedestrian friendly commercial center of Oak Harbor where you will see historic turn-of-the-century buildings, parks and some great deals at our Harborside shops.
