Jetty Island

The original dredged material was deposited over 100 years ago and has been added to over time.

The Port of Everett gained ownership of Jetty Island in 1929 and, with the help of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, built a new marsh of dredged river materials in 1989.

The ferry operates seven days a week and departs from the Port of Everett's boat launch.

[3] The ferry service, which began in 1985 with visitors riding for free, is now contracted to Argosy Cruises.

[5] Jetty Island is home to more than 45 bird species including osprey, shorebirds, hawks, eagles, cormorants and ducks.
