Puget Sound Real Estate

Naval Base Kitsap |Online Relocation Package | Week One | Installation Overview

 

 

LOCATION


Naval Base Kitsap is located in Kitsap County of West Puget Sound on the Kitsap Peninsula.  Naval Base Kitsap is composed of Naval Base Kitsap - Bangor and Naval Base Kitsap Bremerton. Naval Base Kitsap is part of the Navy Region Northwest.  Bangor is the submarine community and Bremerton is the Ship community.  Bremerton is also connected to Puget Sound Naval Shipyard (IMF).  Bremerton is located in the city of Bremerton and Bangor is located closely to the town of Silverdale. 

Centrally located to both bases is Naval Hospital Bremerton which also falls under the Navy Region Northwest. NHB sailors and families use the facilities on Bremerton and Bangor.  Naval Hospital Bremerton is a fully accredited acute care and obstetrical hospital.  My husband was stationed at Naval Hospital Bremerton when I met him. 

Kitsap Peninsula is located just across Puget Sound from Seattle.  You can travel to Seattle via ferry or drive around by going over the newly designed Tacoma Narrow Bridge.  Depending on the time of day and the traffic volume the trip to Seattle usually takes 1 ½ hours. 

You are now in "God's County".  The area offers some of the best views of mountains and water as well as some of the best boating and recreational opportunities in the Greater Puget Sound Area.  Within a mile radius you have several attractions and facilities to visit and explore.

Located on Bremerotn you will find fitness facilities, a commissary and a NEX.  You will find the same facilities located on Bangor.  The facilities on Bangor are larger as is the housing area.  What I find nice is there is always a commissary open. The Bremerton Commissary is closed on Tuesdays, while the Bangor Commissary is closed on Mondays. Of course I really think that all commissaries should be open 7 days a week. What is this 1952!!

In week two of this on-line relocation package series I will write an article more in-depth about the base amenities. 

Until next time....Have a Fine Navy Day!
