The Olympic Peninsula has so much marine life – seals, sea lions, porpoises, whales, and dozens of sea birds. If you’re lucky, you’ll see them from the shore. But if you want to see them up close, book a whale and wildlife tour.
I've a fondness for all things maritime. Though the day went from rain, to clouds to sun, I spent a day running around taking photos of ships of all sizes in Port Townsend and Port Ludlow. With the Alaska cruise season fully underway, it's fun to hang out in Port Ludlow and watch the parade of ships.
A brilliantly sunny Saturday, a four hour jaunt through Oak Bay, Port Townsend Bay and Admiralty Inlet, boats, seals, and fun with my sisters - this is the Olympic Peninsula at its best.
Take a trip from Port Angeles, WA to Victoria, British Columbia aboard the Black Ball ferry. A short and scenic 90-minute sailing puts you in Victoria's Inner Harbor with so much to see and do.
