Port Angeles East, WA

Port Angeles East sits right along the scenic coastline of the Olympic Peninsula, stretching between the Port Angeles city limits and Morse Creek. Home to around 3,000 residents, this quiet community enjoys sweeping views across the Strait of Juan de Fuca and easy access to Highway 101. It offers a relaxed neighborhood feel with a mix of wooded properties and coastal bluffs, making it a great option for anyone looking for a bit more breathing room just outside the city center.

Often referred to locally as Gales Addition, the area blends seamlessly into Port Angeles.

With Deer Park Road nearby offering a gateway into Olympic National Park and Sequim just a short drive down the highway, it is an ideal home base for outdoor enthusiasts who want convenience close at hand.
