The Deception Pass Bridge was completed in the summer of 1935.
The smaller span is 511 feet long, connecting Pass Island with Fidalgo Island. The tidal flow through Canoe Pass is less dangerous than the larger Deception Pass but it is a blind corner and is not used by power boats. It received its name from Indians using it in their canoes.
The larger span is 921 feet long, connecting Pass Island and Whidbey Island. Deception Pass is known for its turbulent tidal flow. During peak tidal flow, treacherous whirlpools can be seen from the bridge.
