What to Expect from the Tides:
Live your life with the ebbs and flows of the tide.
In the listing photos, you may notice the tide is out—but this dynamic shoreline changes throughout the day. Gig Harbor's tides are especially dramatic, often fluctuating 10–12 feet or more. The tide can rise all the way up to the bulkhead, creating a beautiful waterfront experience right outside your door.
•Two Highs & Two Lows Daily: Expect a constantly shifting landscape, from expansive beaches at low tide to a full, vibrant shoreline at high tide.
•A Living Coastline: Low tides reveal tide pools and shells, perfect for exploring. High tides bring the water near, ideal for relaxation or water activities.
Endless Beauty:
Watch the sunrise over a glassy low tide or unwind at dusk as the tide rolls in beneath a painted sky.
Plan Accordingly:
•Kayaking & Paddleboarding: Best during higher tides.
•Beachcombing & Tidepooling: Great at lowest tides.
•Boating: Check tide charts and remain aware of water depth, especially at low tide.
Close to Everything, Yet Wonderfully Secluded
Just a short drive to downtown Gig Harbor, you'll have easy access to waterfront dining, local boutiques, and marina strolls. Nearby hiking trails, parks, and beaches make this an ideal spot for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike.
Whether you're visiting for a weekend escape or a longer retreat, this Gig Harbor home offers comfort, privacy, and a true sense of the Northwest.
