Spark your senses
Visit the land of lush rain forests, old-growth timbers, wild Pacific Ocean coastline and iconic mountain peaks. The Olympic Peninsula is home to Olympic National Park and Olympic National Forest, along with four temperate rain forests and two dozen misty waterfalls. You’ll also find the longest natural sand spit in the U.S., a 68-mile saltwater fjord, the northern-most point in the contiguous United States, along with crystal lakes, deep rivers and sandy beaches. Beyond the region’s natural wonders, there’s even more to explore—world-renowned cuisine from the farm and sea, locally bottled wine, beer and ciders, and 12 unique destinations.
Now through May, you can experience all the Olympic Peninsula has to offer during high-season summer months—minus the crowds, heat and the hustle and bustle. Plus, you’ll find loads of lodging and camping options from forest to coast, and awesome off-season deals to boot.
