**Overview**
Port of Eglon is a public boat ramp providing saltwater access to Puget Sound near Hansville in Kitsap County. This facility is a reliable option for kayakers, canoeists, and small motorboats looking to launch on central Puget Sound, with a maintained ramp, beach access, and limited parking (10-20 spaces).
**What to Expect**
The site offers direct access to Puget Sound and Silver Creek. It's situated in a quieter area compared to some busier regional launches, making it a good choice for paddlers seeking less crowded conditions. The facility includes a boat ramp, beach area for launching, and nearby restroom facilities. Parking is limited, so arriving early during peak season is recommended. This is saltwater access only, making it ideal for sea kayaking and exploring the Puget Sound's diverse marine environment.
**Nearby Options**
Eglon is conveniently located about four miles north of Point No Point, with Kingston Marina (offering restrooms and larger parking) roughly 5 miles away for those needing additional services. The Hiram M. Chittenden Locks provide freshwater access via the Lake Washington Ship Canal for boaters interested in exploring beyond Puget Sound.
