Hiking, with Olympic National Park nearby, is one of the premier activities. You can find beaches to walk, hikes to wildflowers and access to great backpacking trails. Biking, scuba diving, fishing, and kayaking are all readily available. Local events, such as Shrimpfest in Brinnon in May and all-summer- long music at the Linger Longer stage in Quilcene are wildly popular things to do from visitors to locals. Join in the fun.

Hood Canal is a fjord forming the western lobe, and one of the four main basins, of Puget Sound. It’s not a canal in the sense of being a man-made waterway—it is a natural waterway created about 13,000 years ago, during the Late Pleistocene, by the Puget Lobe of the Cordilleran Ice Sheet. Ice Age reality!

Happy caching.
