Things to do

Pick the town you're staying in and we'll sort the peninsula's best ridges, beaches, rainforest walks, and lakes by how long the drive actually takes.

The Olympic Peninsula guide
Everything worth doing, town by town.
We live and work between Sequim, Port Angeles, and Forks, so this is the guide we actually give guests: the hikes that stay quiet, the waterfalls worth the drive, where to eat when the kitchen closes at eight, and how to time the ferry so the trip starts well.
01 — The guide to
Sequim
Sunbelt of the Olympics — lavender rows, blue water, gentle days
Sequim sits in the Olympic rain shadow and collects barely 16 inches of rain a year, which is why the valley grows lavender instead of moss. Mornings open over the Dungeness Valley with the Strait of Juan de Fuca on one side and the Olympic front range on the other, and everything you actually need — Costco, farm stands, a marina, world-class oysters — is inside fifteen minutes.
- Rainfall
- ~16 in / year
- From Port Angeles
- 25 min west
- Best for
- Sun, spit walks, farms
- Peak season
- Lavender, mid-July
Local tipWalk the Dungeness Spit on a falling tide — the sand is firm, the birds are close, and the lighthouse turnaround is a full 11 miles round trip if you commit.
Flat, generous walking with big water views — this is the easy-legs corner of the peninsula.
Dungeness Spit & National Wildlife Refuge
5.5 mi each way · $3 day useThe longest natural sand spit in the country; the New Dungeness Lighthouse sits at the far end.
Olympic Discovery Trail — Railroad Bridge Park
Easy · dog friendlyPaved, stroller-friendly miles over the Dungeness River through old trestle timber.
Sequim Bay State Park
Discover PassSheltered saltwater beach, boat launch, and picnic timber under the firs.
Graysmarsh Farm
Summer onlyU-pick strawberries, raspberries, and lavender in season, right by the water.
John Wayne Marina
Year-roundBoat-watching, a beach loop, and one of the better sunset dinners in town.
02 — The guide to
Port Angeles
Harbor town at the trailhead — alpine ridge, glacial lake, deep water
Port Angeles is where the national park actually begins: a working harbor at sea level with a mile-high alpine road climbing out of it. Hurricane Ridge is 40 minutes from downtown, Lake Crescent glows an improbable blue 20 minutes west, and a ferry crosses to Victoria, BC in 90 minutes. It's the best base for guests who want a real dinner and a real summit in the same day.
- To Hurricane Ridge
- 17 mi · ~40 min
- To Lake Crescent
- 20 min west
- Best for
- Hikes, dining, ferry
- Ferry to Victoria
- 90 min crossing
Local tipDrive Hurricane Ridge for sunrise. The lot fills by 9am on summer weekends, the light is better early, and you'll be back down for breakfast before the crowd arrives.
The densest cluster of postcard hikes on the peninsula, most under two miles.
Hurricane Ridge
Hurricane Hill 3.2 mi RTSubalpine meadows, resident deer, and the Hurricane Hill walk out to a 360° view.
Marymere Falls, Lake Crescent
1.8 mi RT · easyA 90-foot fall through old growth from the Storm King ranger station.
Mount Storm King
4.1 mi RT · strenuousSteep, rope-assisted scramble to the lake overlook. Not for nervous knees.
Spruce Railroad Trail & Devil's Punchbowl
4 mi RT · flatOld rail grade to the bluest swimming hole in Washington.
Sol Duc Falls & Hot Springs
1.6 mi RTThree-channel waterfall with an easy forest approach; mineral pools nearby.
Madison Falls & the Elwha Valley
0.2 mi RTWheelchair-accessible waterfall five minutes from the highway.
Salt Creek Recreation Area
Check tide chartTongue Point tidepools at low tide — anemones, stars, and bunker ruins.
Ediz Hook
SunsetDrive-out sand spit for harbor seals, ships, and mountain-and-sea photos.
03 — The guide to
Forks
Rainforest and wild coast — the loudest quiet on the peninsula
Forks catches over 100 inches of rain a year and it shows: 300-foot spruce, moss hanging in curtains, rivers the color of jade. It is the launch point for the Hoh Rain Forest, Rialto and Second Beach, Ruby Beach, and the salmon and steelhead rivers that made the town. Bring layers, download your maps, and plan around the tide chart rather than the clock.
- Rainfall
- 100+ in / year
- From Port Angeles
- 1 hr 15 min
- To Hoh Rain Forest
- ~1 hr
- Best for
- Rainforest, beaches, fishing
Local tipCell service disappears west of Lake Crescent. Download offline maps and a tide table before you leave Port Angeles — Hole-in-the-Wall and Second Beach are only safe on a low, outgoing tide.
The greatest hits are short walks; the wilderness behind them is endless.
Hoh Rain Forest — Hall of Mosses
0.8 mi loopThe image everyone comes for. Arrive before 9am or after 4pm in summer.
Spruce Nature Trail
1.2 mi loopQuieter Hoh loop along the river braid, often empty.
Hoh River Trail
Up to 17 mi one wayTurn around at Five Mile Island or push toward Blue Glacier.
Rialto Beach & Hole-in-the-Wall
3.3 mi RT · low tideDriftwood, sea stacks, and a tide-gated arch walk.
Second Beach, La Push
1.4 mi each wayForest descent that opens onto the peninsula's best sunset.
Ruby Beach
0.5 mi RTSea stacks and polished stone; five-minute walk from the lot.
Kalaloch & the Tree of Life
RoadsideThe root-cave spruce that refuses to fall.
Bogachiel & Quillayute rivers
License requiredSteelhead in winter, salmon in fall — guides book out months ahead.
The recommended route
Five days, east to west, one loop.
Arrive in the rain shadow, climb to the alpine, then follow the highway west into the rainforest and out to the sea stacks. This is the order that works.
Day 1
Arrive · Sequim
Ferry across, settle in, walk the spit
SEA → Sequim · 2 hr 45 min via the Kingston ferry
- Land before 1pm to beat the Seattle afternoon crush and the ferry queue.
- Stock the kitchen at Costco or Sunny Farms on the way through town.
- Late-afternoon walk on the Dungeness Spit, then dinner at Alder Wood Bistro.
Day 2
Sequim → Port Angeles
Alpine sunrise, then glacial blue water
Sequim → Hurricane Ridge → Lake Crescent · ~90 min of driving
- Leave at first light for Hurricane Ridge; Hurricane Hill for the full 360°.
- Down to Lake Crescent for Marymere Falls and a swim at Devil's Punchbowl.
- Barhop Brewing on the harbor, then sunset out on Ediz Hook.
Day 3
Port Angeles → Forks
Waterfalls west, rainforest by evening
Port Angeles → Sol Duc → Forks · 2 hr with stops
- Sol Duc Falls in the morning light, soak at the hot springs after.
- Fuel and groceries in Forks — service and stores thin out past here.
- Second Beach at La Push for sunset behind the sea stacks.
Day 4
Forks · Hoh & the coast
Hall of Mosses early, sea stacks late
Forks → Hoh → Ruby Beach loop · ~2 hr 30 min
- In the Hoh by 8:30am — the lot closes to inbound traffic when it fills.
- Ruby Beach and the Kalaloch Tree of Life on the way back north.
- Rialto Beach after dark for stars, or a fire pit at the cabin.
Day 5
Departure
Slow morning, unhurried drive back
Forks → SEA · 4 hr 15 min — leave by 10am
- Coffee at the Forks Coffee Shop, then east along the lake.
- Optional last stop: Madison Falls in the Elwha Valley, 15 minutes off 101.
- Target a ferry before 2pm or plan to drive around via Tacoma.
Getting here
Airports, ferries, cars, and timing.
The peninsula rewards a well-planned arrival. Here is what we tell guests before they book flights.
Airports
Seattle–Tacoma International (SEA)
2 hr 45 min – 4 hr 15 min outThe practical arrival for nearly every guest. Full rental fleets on site.
William R. Fairchild International (CLM), Port Angeles
In Port AngelesSmall regional field with commuter service — 10 minutes from downtown.
Kenmore Air seaplane, Lake Union → Port Angeles
Seasonal, limitedScenic 45-minute hop; skips the ferry and the freeway entirely.
Victoria International (YYJ), BC
Passport requiredPair with the MV Coho ferry into Port Angeles — 90-minute crossing.
Getting here
Edmonds → Kingston ferry
Best overallThe fastest route to Sequim. 30-minute crossing, no vehicle reservations, so budget one sailing of wait in summer.
Seattle → Bainbridge ferry
35 min crossingMost scenic; walk-on friendly if you rent a car in Poulsbo or get picked up.
Drive around via Tacoma
+45 min, zero riskNo ferry, no queue, fully predictable — I-5 to WA-16 to WA-3 to US-101.
Rental cars
Rent at SEA, not on the peninsula
Peninsula inventory is thin and sells out on holiday weekends. Book the airport counter well ahead.
Choose AWD or an SUV November–April
Hurricane Ridge Road requires tire chains in your vehicle in winter, and the coast road gets slick.
Local counters
Enterprise, Budget, and Hertz all serve Port Angeles and Sequim — useful for one-way or replacement rentals.
Fuel discipline
Fill in Sequim, Port Angeles, or Forks. Stations along 101 between them are sparse and close early.
When to arrive
Leave SEA before 1pm or after 7pm
Seattle's 3–7pm weekday backup, worst on Fridays, can add 90 minutes to the drive.
Summer ferry waits run 1–2 sailings
Friday afternoons westbound and Sunday afternoons eastbound are the pinch points.
Park trailheads early
Hurricane Ridge and the Hoh both fill by 9am from June to September; both are calm again after 4pm.
Shoulder seasons win
Late May–June and September–early October: open roads, full waterfalls, and rates well under peak.
