Welcome to hahobas.org -- the virtual home of Camp Hahobas, BSA.  Located on over 600 acres above Hood Canal, Camp Hahobas is an excellent location for your unit year-round.  The property includes access to three freshwater lakes, a saltwater beach, hundreds of acres of forest, and incredible views of Hood Canal and the Olympic Mountains.

Hood Canal View from Beach The Pacific Harbors Council (Tacoma, WA) owns and operates the property.  We will offer a total of five (5) weeks of summer camp this year.  The remainder of the year the property is often used for district and unit activities.  Those activities have a wide variety of resources at hand: 21 established campsites, several lodges, program areas, a COPE course, fire bowls, and outpost camping sites for wilderness/ leave no trace camping events.  If you haven't visited the camp or done so in the last few years we encourage you to take a virtual tour here on our website or come visit us at camp.
