Join us for the dedication of our new Trail Tales interpretive signs along the northwest shore of Fidalgo Bay. Meet at Seafarer's Memorial Park for refreshments and a ribbon cutting ceremony hosted by Friends of Skagit Beaches, Anacortes Park & Recreation Department, and the Port of Anacortes. We invite you to stay for a guided Trail Tales interpretive walk following the ceremony at 10:30 am or you can visit the new Discovery Points at your own pace with our new trail map in hand. From 10:30 am – 12 pm docents will be present at the new Discovery Points ready to share interesting facts and stories. The Marine Technology Center, a new Discovery Point location, is hosting an open house in conjunction with the celebration. The walk route is flat, paved and handicapped accessible.
Join Trail Tales docents to explore the Early Anacortes Maritime Scene, an excursion through time. Our walk will begin at Seafarer's Park and follow a level, paved and handicapped accessible walkway around the marina to the Rotary Park Gazebo. Along the way you will learn how our maritime history shaped the character of Anacortes and left its legacy.
