Getting to Lummi Island

Traveling to Lummi Island entails a short ferry ride on the Whatcom Chief. The ferry departs from Gooseberry Point on the mainland, and in under 10 minutes crosses Hale Passage to the Lummi Island ferry terminal. Once on the island, a short drive will take you to any of our four nature preserves.

Conservation Easements

We are incredibly grateful to the many private property owners on Lummi Island who have placed their land into a conservation easement with LIHT. These conservation easements amount to an additional 733.73 acres of land and critical habitat that is protected in perpetuity. LIHT stewardship staff monitor conservation easements annually to ensure that the agreements are upheld and the conservation values preserved, while working with property owners to ensure that their needs are met. If you are interested in protecting your land on Lummi Island through a conservation easement, please follow the link provided below or contact us directly at info@liht.org .

Conservation Easements - Lummi Island Heritage Trust

A conservation easement is a voluntary legal agreement between a landowner and LIHT that is designed to protect the land's conservation values. LIHT works with landowners to determine terms that are right for the land and align with the landowner's intent. An easement can protect an entire property or part of it.
