Ah-ah-ah, my hometown of Anacortes, WA! (See a great video of this town at the bottom of the page). Iâve loved living in what some call Anacortes Island for years -- even though âAnacortes Islandâ doesnât exist! The town of Anacortes itself is on two beautiful islands, but the town is just called Anacortes (not Anacortes Island). Fidalgo Island and Guemes Island are the names of the islands themselves. Most of Anacortes is on Fidalgo Island.
