THINGS TO DO IN GIG HARBOR
On the water
Dining
Cultural Events
Gig Harbor is a small harbor protected by the winds and waves of the Narrows. It’s amazing place to get out on the water—whether by fishing boat, kayak, SUP, or even gondola! Check out our guide.
Gig Harbor has some amazing dining options. From the waterfront (Anthony’s, Net Shed, The Tides) to downtown (Il Lucano, Seven Seas) to Uptown (Green House, Lele Thai, Blue Agave) you won’t hurt for places to eat on the west side of the bridge.
Many cultural events for the peninsula are centered in Gig Harbor. Check out the farmers markets and concerts every summer at Uptown. The blessing of the fleet (every June), the Gig Harbor Film Festival (every October) and much more. Make Gig Harbor your home base and enjoy a rich and vibrant cultural life around you!
