Oak Harbor Summary
History
The city of Oak Harbor, Washington is located on the northern tip of Whidbey Island in Island County. The area was first inhabited by the Snohomish and Skagit tribes, who lived off the abundant resources of the island. The first European settlers arrived in the area in the late 1800s, and the town was officially incorporated in 1915.
The city was named after the large oak trees that grew in the area, and the harbor was used as a safe haven for ships during storms. The city quickly grew as a commercial center, with a bustling fishing industry and a large lumber mill. The city also became a popular tourist destination, with many visitors coming to enjoy the beautiful scenery and the nearby beaches.
In the early 1900s, the city was home to a large military base, which was used by the US Navy during World War II. The base was decommissioned in the 1950s, but the city still has a strong military presence, with the Naval Air Station Whidbey Island located nearby.
