Illahee State Park is a 75-acre marine camping park with 1,785 feet of saltwater frontage on Port Orchard Bay. “Illahee” means “earth” or “country” in the Indian tradition, and views of Puget Sound from the Illahee beach give the viewer a sense of what that word meant to native people. The park has plenty of parking space, lots of fresh air, facilities for a number of outdoor activities and access to a variety of water sports. Indian tradition states that the word “Illahee” means “earth” or “country.” Illahee State Park was acquired in seven parcels between 1934 and 1954.
