Sauvie Island

Bicyclists flock to the island because its flat topography and lengthy low-volume roads make it ideal for cycling.

Prior to European arrival in the 19th century, Sauvie Island was the ancestral home to the Multnomah band of the Chinook Tribe.

This section of the beach is often a party-like environment on warm and sunny days,[16] leading to an alcohol ban in effect from May 1 to September 30 that began in 2018.

[19] Crops include strawberries, raspberries, marionberries, blackberries, blueberries, peaches, pears, sweet corn, cherries, broccoli, lettuce, cauliflower, zucchini, tomatoes, green beans, cucumbers, pumpkins, herbs, and others.

Wapato Bridge connects the island to the rest of Oregon.
