Point No Point Repair

Efforts to restore and improve the shoreline at Point No Point Park following the damage sustained during the 2022/2023 winter storms continue. This multi-phase project is designed to repair the beach and infrastructure while enhancing shoreline resilience for future conditions.

Phase 1 – Repairs Completed

Phase 1 of the project was completed in 2023 and included importing sand and rock materials to restore the north beach to pre-storm elevations.

Phase 2 – Improvements Underway

Phase 2 is a larger effort to improve the beach and shoreline beyond their original condition. Planned improvements include:

- Adding additional material to further increase beach elevation
- Rebuilding the rock revetment wall in front of the lighthouse
- Planting native vegetation to improve long-term shoreline stability

All required permits have been cleared with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Washington State Department of Ecology, and the Department of Fish and Wildlife. Final permit approval is pending from the U.S. Coast Guard. Once permits are finalized, construction is anticipated to take place during the designated in-water work window from August 15 to October 15, 2025. The formal bidding process for construction services is now underway.

Park Access & Safety

To protect the shoreline in the interim, the super-sack sandbag wall will remain in place. However, this limits the entrance road to a single-lane width, preventing safe two-way traffic and emergency vehicle access. As a result:

The main entrance road and parking lot at Point No Point Park remain closed.

- Alternative access is available:

- WDFW parking lot (OPEN)
- Small overflow lot near WDFW lot – 880 ft. (0.15 mi.) walk via paved road
- Trailhead at Thors Road – 2,500 ft. (0.5 mi.) walk via dirt trail to the beach stairs

We ask all visitors to respect nearby private property:

- Do not stop or loiter on private tidelands
- Stay within public access areas
- Use caution as vehicles may be entering or exiting the area

Thank you for your continued support and patience as we work to restore and improve this treasured shoreline park.

	Gordon Field Turf Replacement In a collaborative effort, Kitsap County Parks is exploring an opportunity with Central Kitsap School District to enhance recreational facilities for the community. During a recent meeting, both organizations discovered they are planning similar synthetic turf replacement projects. To improve project efficiency and reduce costs, Kitsap County Parks is investigating the use of a KCDA (King County Directors’ Association) procurement contract for the synthetic turf replacement at Gordon Soccer Field. Central Kitsap School District is utilizing the same KCDA contract for their own turf projects at Olympic High School and Fairview Middle School. This potential partnership reflects a shared commitment to investing in high-quality, durable play spaces for local youth and community users. More updates will be provided as the project progresses.
