Pacific Northwest - Washington
Lime Kiln Point State Park (Whale Watching Park)
( Nature’s Beauty / Parks )
A Karen Brown Recommendation
|
Friday Harbor, WA USA
|
Easily one of the loveliest spots on the island is the drive along West Side Road. Take it to the tiny Lime Kiln Point State Park, perhaps better known now as Whale Watching Park. Poised along De Haro Strait, this section of parkside water is known to be a favorite cruising spot for pods of orcas and minkes who spend their summers in these waters. Park the car and walk along the cliffs and by the tidepools. You are likelier to see whales in summer months, if you time your visit for late afternoon/early evening. This is the time of year when most sightings are documented. The Lime Kiln Lighthouse is now a whale research station. It uses underwater microphones to monitor and study the communications between whales.
