It extends east from the Pacific Ocean between [[Vancouver Island]], British Columbia, and the [[Olympic Peninsula]], Washington, to [[Haro Strait]], San Juan Channel, [[Rosario Strait]], and [[Puget Sound]]. The Pacific Ocean boundary is formed by a line between [[Cape Flattery (Washington)|Cape Flattery]] and [[Tatoosh Island]], Washington, and Carmanah Point (Vancouver Island), British Columbia. Its northern boundary follows the shoreline of Vancouver Island from Carmanah Point to Gonzales Point, then follows a continuous line east to Seabird Point ([[Discovery Island (British Columbia)|Discovery Island]]), British Columbia, Cattle Point ([[San Juan Island]]), Washington, [[Iceberg Point]] ([[Lopez Island]]), Point Colville (Lopez Island), and then to Rosario Head ([[Fidalgo Island]]). The eastern boundary runs south from Rosario Head across [[Deception Pass]] to [[Whidbey Island]], then along the western coast of Whidbey Island to [[Point Partridge]], then across [[Admiralty Inlet]] to [[Point Wilson]] ([[Quimper Peninsula]]). The northern coast of the [[Olympic Peninsula]] forms the southern boundary of the strait.<ref name=gnis/> In the eastern entrance to the Strait, the Race Rocks Archipelago is in the high current zone halfway between Port Angeles, Washington, and Victoria, BC.
