Vashon Island guide

Vashon is a census-designated place (CDP) in King County, Washington, United States. It covers an island alternately called Vashon Island  or Vashon-Maury Island, the largest island in Puget Sound south of Admiralty Inlet.

At 37 square miles (96 km²), it is about 60 percent larger in area than Manhattan[1], with about 1/150 the population. The southern terminus of the Vashon Highway is the Tahlequah Ferry Terminal, connected to the Point Defiance neighborhood of Tacoma by a Washington State Ferries run. The northern terminus of the Vashon Highway is the Heights Dock at Point Vashon, which services the state ferry docks at Southworth, Fauntleroy in West Seattle, and Downtown Seattle. There are no bridges to connect the island with the mainland, a big factor contributing to the island's relative isolation and rural character.
