Klallam (also Clallam, although this spelling is disliked by the Klallam community) refers to four distinct but otherwise related indigenous Native American/First Nations peoples from the Pacific Northwest of North America. Three Klallam bands live on the Olympic Peninsula in the far northwest corner (bordering the Strait of Juan de Fuca) of Washington state, and one is based at Becher Bay on southern Vancouver Island in British Columbia.
