Some of the best Northwest moments can be found exploring the islands off the Washington coast. We love heading to San Juan Island – one of the western most islands of the San Juans, where the town Friday Harbor welcomes visitors with open arms.
Heading to the west side of the island, the Lime Kiln Point lighthouse is a wonderful spot for a relaxing view – that’s Canada there in the distance!
Ferries can be packed so plan ahead so you can enjoy your San Juan island experience. Do you have a favorite coastal Northwest lighthouse? You can learn more about the Washington state lighthouses (and get a lighthouse license plate) over at Lighthousefriends.com. For Oregon, there are fewer – here’a great photo essay of the Oregon state lighthouses.
