Guemes Island may be small, covering only 5,505 acres (about 8.6 square miles), but it offers a wealth of activities. A quick 8-minute ride on the Guemes Island Ferry is just the beginning of an exciting day. Spend your time hiking, biking, strolling along the beach, or enjoying live music at one of the events hosted by the Guemes Island Store. The island truly has something for everyone!
