Ebey's Landing National Historical Reserve

Within the fast growing Puget Sound region, Ebey's Landing National Historical Reserve provides a vivid historical record where Pacific Northwest history is still clearly visible in the landscape. Historical features of the reserve appear to today's visitors much as they did a century ago, when New England sea captains were drawn to Penn Cove.

Ebey's Landing National Historical Reserve is located on central Whidbey Island in Washington State's Puget Sound region. The island is easily accessible from the mainland via SR 20 from Anacortes. The Washington State Ferry system provides year-round automobile service from Port Townsend and Mukilteo.
