Wollochet

The Wollochet boat ramp provides public access to Wollochet Bay near Gig Harbor in Pierce County. Located at the end of Wollochet Drive (approximately 2.2 miles west from Highway 16), this Pierce County-maintained launch serves kayakers, canoeists, and recreational boaters exploring the sheltered waters of Puget Sound. The site is situated in a residential area with straightforward access to the water, making it a convenient option for paddlers launching into the bay.

Wollochet Bay is a relatively protected saltwater body ideal for kayaking and canoeing, particularly for those seeking calmer conditions compared to more exposed Sound waters. Before launching, paddlers should check tide conditions and local weather forecasts, as saltwater conditions can change. Nearby amenities and services are available in the Gig Harbor area, though specific facility details at the ramp itself (parking capacity, restrooms, etc.) should be confirmed with Pierce County Parks directly.
