Scandia is an agricultural village in Kitsap County, Washington, United States. Scandia is situated on the Kitsap Peninsula on the west bank of Liberty Bay, a few kilometers south of Poulsbo. Many patches around the village create an agricultural, and relaxing atmosphere of the early days of Liberty Bay, and most famously, Scandia Patch, a pumpkin patch in central Scandia.[citation needed]

Scandia is the third largest settlement by area and population on Liberty Bay, behind Poulsbo and Keyport.[citation needed] The land area of Scandia is 358 acres.[citation needed]
