Welcome to Gig Harbor

Charming Maritime Village Vibes 

Known as "The Maritime City," Gig Harbor offers the perfect blend of coastal sophistication and historic charm, featuring a scenic waterfront bustling with a vibrant boating community and a downtown rich with artisan boutiques and galleries.
 
Nicknamed the "gateway to the Olympic Peninsula," it provides effortless accessibility to Washington’s most iconic wilderness, serving as a stunning bridge between refined harbor-side living and the raw, natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest.

  • Offers proximity to Tacoma and Seattle for commuters or those wanting access to urban conveniences while enjoying waterfront living. Including proximity to SeaTac for those looking to jetset

Fishing & Maritime Legacy

  • The town's deep Croatian fishing & boat building roots explain how Eastern European settlers established a bustling fishing industry that still influences the local culture today.
  • A thriving commercial fishing fleet and a rich history of boat building are the cornerstones of Gig Harbor's identity, and the famous Net Sheds, a living, historic link to the town's untamed maritime heritage, are a unique way to preserve both.

Gig Harbor vs Greater Gig Harbor/Fox Island (Peninsula School District)

With over 100 miles of shoreline in the greater Gig Harbor area, there are many opportunities for waterfront and/or stunning view homes that can include Mt. Rainier or the Olympic Mountains. Additionally, Gig Harbor is home to many cozy neighborhoods separated by large tracts of green space and parks, as well as golf course living.
  • Gig Harbor has something for everyone, spanning the gamut of property size, home size, age, features, and more. Prices range from $450,000 to $8M with a median of approximately $850,000.
  • Market Trends: Gig Harbor is a coveted location, and we experience market trends and dynamics that are hyperlocal and different from surrounding areas. For example, the median prices are substantially higher than the rest of Pierce and Kitsap Counties (with the exception of Bainbridge Island).
