The western rim of Fidalgo Island is marked by a succession of communities that follow the rough coastline southward. Residents take in premier views of the San Juan Islands, the Straits of Juan de Fuca and in the distance, the Olympic peaks. Some of the Island's most exclusive enclaves are found in this region. Distinctive pockets of homes such as those at Del Mar Community, The Pointe, Seaview, Alexander Beach and Biz Point mark the entire corridor. Waterfront homes may feature private beaches or access to mooring buoys. Although one may feel lost in their own world along the Westside, return to Anacortes is quick along Havekost Road.
