Orcas Island reaches its central narrowing at the village of Eastsound, where the landscape is defined by the deep indentation of Ship Bay and Fishing Bay. This modern survey illustrates the island's coastal geography, from the heights of Turtleback Mtn and Mt Woolard to the varied shorelines of West Beach and North Beach. The interior is dotted with small bodies of water like Turtleback Lake and Fowler Pond, while the coast is marked by distinctive features such as Parker Reef and Freeman Island. Local history is anchored by the Woodlawn Cem and the sprawling grounds of Camp Orkila at Point Doughty. The infrastructure of the community is centered around the Orcas Island Airport and a network of winding roads like Crow Valley Rd and Olga RD, which connect the disparate settlements of Beach Haven and Rosario.
