About Illahee State Park

Illahee State Park sits on Port Orchard Bay near East Bremerton and offers a mix of forest, rocky and sandy shoreline, and calm bay water. Visitors can camp year-round, hike wooded trails, fish or harvest shellfish, and launch kayaks or paddleboards. The pier and moorage dock serve boaters, and a memorial displays two large naval guns from the USS West Virginia. The park also contains an old-growth stand with a Pacific yew said to be about 400 years old.
