Minor Island.

Minor Island is an island located in the eastern Strait of Juan de Fuca, in Island County, Washington. It is about mid-way between Admiralty Inlet and Lopez Island. It is connected to the larger Smith Island, to its west, by a low spit that is covered at high tide.

The island has a light and is also the site of a weather station operated by the United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Travel to these islands requires the largest open-water transit in Washington. Their nearest neighbor is Whidbey Island, approximately 5.5 miles away.
