From the beach at American Camp you can see the Olympic mountains rising out of the Olympic Peninsula. On a clear day, you can even see Mt. Rainier in the distance. Views here are better than from the Seattle Space Needle. Fine dining, fresh seafood and northwest cuisine populate the menus of the local restaurants. Waterborne activities abound with fresh water canoeing, salt water kayaking, fishing.
Orca sightings are spectacular.
Hike up Mount Young. Tour the whale museum. Ride the ferry to either Orcas or Lopez islands. Every where you look, you can find hotel and motel accommodations. But, most agree that staying in a bed and breakfast inn will be most enjoyable.
