Gig Harbor, once an almost undisturbed fishing village (and still homeport for an active commercial fleet), is now part suburbia, part weekend destination. Boating is still important to Gig Harbor, with good anchorage and various moorage docks attracting gunwale-to-gunwale pleasure craft. When the clouds break, Mt Rainier holds court for all. Gig Harbor offers fantastic waterfront living opportunities with miles of protected shoreline and fantastic views of Mt Rainier and the Olympic Mountain Range.
