Hale Passage

Hale Passage is the name of two different bodies of water in Puget Sound, in the U.S. state of Washington.
 * In the north Sound, in Whatcom County, Hale Passage separates Lummi Island from the mainland near Bellingham. 48.73°N, -122.67944°W
 * In the south Sound in Pierce County, another Hale Passage separates Fox Island from the Kitsap Peninsula, near Gig Harbor. 47.27667°N, -122.65139°W

In both cases, the passages were named by the Wilkes Expedition for ethnologist Horatio Hale.
