The tour crosses Davis Slough to Camano Island, on which are many summer homes, resorts, and small farms. The waters around the island are noted for excellent salmon fishing.

This long, narrow island east of Whidbey Island, Island County is bounded on the north by Skagit Bay, on the east by Port Susan, on the south by Possession Sound, and on the west by Saratoga Passage at its northeast tip. It is separated from the mainland of Snohomish County by Davis Slough, which is dry at low tides. Miles of shallow tideland adjoin the island in this vicinity.
