Skansie Park is the core of the harbor and super cute to walk around. There's a fun seating area on the rooftop of the clean public restrooms. Free life jackets to borrow if you'd like while you're exploring the dock. I searched and search for the parking meter before I realized parking is FREE in downtown Gig Harbor.

This dog's got the right idea!

Compulsory playground stop. This is Gateway Park, recently renovated with a big zip line and a splash pad. Big covered pavilion and restrooms, too!
