Incredible vistas abound on the Olympic Peninsula, from the moody rainforests of Olympic National Park to the rocky beaches of Cape Flattery, the northernmost point of the continental USA.

A short ferry ride from Seattle whisks you away to an enchantingly beautiful archipelago. Set on a rocky cliff on the west coast of San Juan Island, Lime Kiln State Park offers incredible views of the Olympic Mountains as well as some of the best whale watching in the USA.
