Tips from the Community
Tommy Thompson Parkway is a great car-free route out to March Point, with nice water views along the trestle. But heads up—seagulls drop shells here to crack them open, leaving sharp debris that’s notorious for causing flats. Ride with caution, and if you’re on skinny tires, consider walking your bike across the worst sections.

99% of my bike rides utilize this route out of Anacortes. Beware the flying clams!

The trestle provides a car-free route to March's Point, BUT there is a downside. Sea gulls use the trestle to crack open clams, dropped from above, and the pointy shards litter the trestle until the sweeping angels come. I've punctured many times here, and ruined a couple of expensive bike tires. I wish there was some kind of "Shell Report" or webcam or some way of knowing the condition of the trestle before you head out on your bike. And if I wanted to walk my bike across the trestle, I wouldn't have ridden a bike.

The seagulls use the Parkway as a place to break open shellfish, leaving behind sharp broken seashells. Take care if you have thinner road bike tires.

Between Padilla and Fidalgo Bays lies an island sanctuary, home to a vast Great Blue Heron colony, one of the West's largest. In 2019, 680 nests were spotted, with numbers on the rise. The island's proximity to feeding grounds makes it a haven for these majestic birds.
