The sky above Birch Bay is about to get a whole lot more colorful. The Birch Bay Kids Kite Festival returns June 20 and 21 at Birch Bay State Park, and Bellingham SeaFeast is proud to be there as a community partner. It's a free, family-friendly weekend packed with kites soaring over the bay, crafts, educational activities, and food and craft vendors. Whether you're 5 or 55, there's something to love.
Got old nets and line taking up space? Drop them off at our Net Recycling Drop-Off between 11am-4pm on Wednesday, June 24 at the end of web locker #2 in Squalicum Harbor. Old fishing gear gets transformed into knife handles, industrial plastics, and more—and you skip the dump fees and hauling headaches in the process. It's a win for your dock space and a win for the working waterfront. All are welcome to stop by! In partnership with Samson Rope and Net Your Problem.
Funded in part by a public participation grant from the Washington Department of Ecology.
Join Bellingham SeaFeast and Puget Sound Anglers at LFS Marine & Outdoor for a free, hands-on salmon trolling rigging demonstration where experienced anglers will walk you through how to set up your gear. Whether you're a first-timer or just looking to up your game, this is a great chance to ask questions, learn some tricks and bring any old tangled fishing line for recycling to make sure it gets a new life and avoids the landfill.
Join us for a Paint & Sip event on Friday, August 7, from 5-7pm at the Working Waterfront Coalition of Whatcom County office at Squalicum Harbor. This unique night out combines art, local flavor, and Northwest vibes, with step-by-step guidance from local artist and SeaFeast Executive Director Kevin Coleman. Come ready for wine and seafood nibbles.
