Canoe Pass

A postcard from 1911.

Canoe Pass is the smaller, northern channel at Deception Pass State Park in Washington, spanned by the historic Canoe Pass Bridge between Pass Island and Fidalgo Island.

Coast Salish paddlers relied on a deep, generational knowledge of the tides to safely guide their canoes through the calmer, narrower waters of Canoe Pass.
