Oyster Bay View

Oyster Bay at high tide


Oyster Bay is just south of Mud Bay. The two bays are separated by a narrow strip of land that forms the base of the Marine Drive peninsula. Oyster Bay is larger than Mud Bay, better known, and more scenic. Its name gets more respect too even if most of the oysters that lived in the shallow water along its shores are long gone.

The photo was taken this afternoon from the parking lot of the Family Pancake House on Kitsap Way. Bremerton’s Baymont Inn is in the background. Additional great views of Oyster Bay are available from Madrona Point, Shorewood Drive, the Baymont Inn, and several other restaurants along Kitsap Way. The Oyster Bay interchange, a major exit for Bremerton from State Route 3, lies just to the west of the bay.
