Island Beach Access

Island Beach Access

Island Beach Access (aka IBA) is a charitable organization whose Mission is to identify, enhance and preserve beach access on Whidbey Island for current and further generations while respecting both public and private interests. We welcome your questions, concerns, and support!

Determining the boundaries of public and private shorelines is one of the most perplexing problems for beach-walkers and boaters alike. Existing signs are often not helpful or are misleading.  We are working to resolve these issues.

Our Goals:

  • Improve water-side access points for boaters and kayakers.

  • Establish another waterfront accessibility point for mobility impaired persons.

  • Clarify signage for public and private beach access for more beaches on both sides of South/Central Whidbey.
