Guemes Channel Marine Traffic

Guemes Channel Marine Traffic



Guemes Channel marine traffic can get very hectic with pleasure boats and tankers. The Guemes channel is a little over a half-mile in distance from the Anacortes side to the Guemes Island landing. To give you an idea of how hectic it can get, there is a guest boat capacity of 150 – 200 boats per night in just Cap Sante Marina. There are many very large marinas in the Anacortes area with 100 or more boats. There are many different types of vessels to view while you are waiting for the ferry.
