Oak Harbor, Naval city on Whidbey Island, United States.

Oak Harbor stretches across 9.47 square miles of land on the northern section of Whidbey Island in Washington state, surrounded by Garry Oak trees.

The settlement began in the 1850s when Zakarias Martin Toftezen from Norway and C.W. Sumner from New England established the first claims in the area.

The Lower Skagit people maintained several village communities in Oak Harbor and Crescent Harbor before the arrival of modern settlers.

Residents and visitors can access Oak Harbor through the Deception Pass Bridge or by using the ferry services between Mukilteo-Clinton and Coupeville-Port Townsend.

The Naval Air Station Whidbey Island, established in 1942, forms an integral part of the city and contributes significantly to its population of 24,622.
