One of the true natural wonders of the Olympic Peninsula—and just across the street from our home—is Dungeness Spit, a destination you won't want to miss. Stretching nearly six miles into the Strait of Juan de Fuca, it's one of the longest natural sand spits in the world and offers breathtaking views, peaceful walking trails, and incredible opportunities for wildlife viewing. The surrounding wildlife refuge is home to an abundance of marine life and migratory birds. Eelgrass beds attract brant and other waterfowl, shorebirds forage along the tideflats, and seals, harbor porpoises, and other coastal wildlife are often spotted in the bay. Whether you're an avid birder, a nature enthusiast, or simply looking for a memorable walk, Dungeness Spit is one of Sequim's most unforgettable experiences.

No visit to the Olympic Peninsula is complete without experiencing Hurricane Ridge, the most accessible alpine destination in Olympic National Park. On a clear day, you'll be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views of the Olympic Mountains, the Strait of Juan de Fuca, and even Vancouver Island in the distance. Whether you choose a scenic drive, a leisurely stroll, or one of the many hiking trails, Hurricane Ridge offers unforgettable mountain vistas, wildflower meadows, and frequent wildlife sightings, including deer, marmots, and black-tailed deer. It's one of the Pacific Northwest's most spectacular destinations and a must-see while you're here.
