RESTAURANTS
If you want to stay at the marina, we have a store and a cafe on the main dock.
Open 9AM to 5PM on weekdays, 10AM to 2PM on weekends, The store carries groceries, espresso, ice cream, prepared food, beer, wine, soft drinks, ice, bait, and some produce.
The grill serves quick breakfast and lunches until 3PM on weekdays, 1:30PM on weekends. For dinner head up to Matthew's Smokehouse (formerly Deer Harbor Restaurant) for a great Barbeque meal or go across the street to Island Pie for some delicious pizza.
OUT ON THE WATER
It’s impossible to stay off the water at Deer Harbor. If you don't have a personal boat or kayak, that’s not a problem.
There are boat rentals based at the marina if you want to head out and explore on your own.
But If you would prefer to have more guidance, there are tours and charters which leave from the marina for whale watching, kayaking, sailing, and fishing.
TRANSPORTATION
You’ve come out to Deer Harbor Marina on your boat, but you need to get around the island?
Orcas Island Car Rentals will deliver the car to near the marina with 24 hours notice.
If the rentals don't work for you, there are multiple taxi services based on Orcas. Their average cost is $35-$45 per couple one way.
COMMUNITY CLUB
If visitors ever want to socialize a little, maybe go to a party or an event, a great place to start is at the Deer Harbor Community Club. From potlucks to garage sales to wine tasting and bake sales, the community club is the place to make new friends and get in touch with the community. The building is also available to rent for anything that you need. Stop by the marina moorage office for contact information.
