Lummi Island Community Information
Lummi Island was our home for nearly
30 years, and while our reasons for living here have been varied, they all come
down to lifestyle. The facts of the Island are straightforward. It lies less
than a mile off the coast of Whatcom County, which is just a 10 minute Ferry
Ride via the Whatcom Chief. It supports a permanent population of approximately
900 people, a store, several restaurants, several bed and breakfasts and an active
artists' colony. There are a few public facilities but there are a number of
homes available for vacation rentals.
