Medium-sized marina with multiple piers hosting dozens of boats, surrounded by residential buildings and a medium surface parking lot with visible vehicles near the water's edge.
Driftwood Key Harbormaster Office is situated in Hansville, Washington, on the northeastern tip of the Kitsap Peninsula along the shores of Puget Sound, a protected inland sea that forms part of the Pacific Coast's intricate network of waterways. This marina provides access to the calm, island-dotted waters of Puget Sound, catering to recreational sailors and boaters who navigate the Salish Sea region. Its location near the entrance to the Strait of Juan de Fuca makes it ideal for exploring nearby coastal areas and the broader Puget Sound ecosystem.
Marinas typically need to separate slip holder parking from day-visitor parking, trailer areas, launch ramps, and secure dock access points. Modern facilities use barrier gate systems to enforce these zones automatically — allowing permitted vehicles through via transponder or keycard while logging all access events.
