Whale Pass lies on the northeast side of Prince of Wales Island, north of Coffman Cove on Forest Development Road (FDR) 25.

History:
The area has been the site of logging camps continuously since 1964. In the early 1980s, the last camp moved out, and the area was permanently settled as the result of a State Department of Natural Resources land disposal sale.
Today, many Whale Pass residents are homesteaders and logging operations, related services, and the school provide the only steady employment.
