San Juan Islands (cont.)
Out of all the places in Washington, these islands are some of the best spots where you can go whale watching, with the best and most known spot being Lime Kiln State Park on Friday Harbor, located on San Juan Island. This island is also the one with the biggest population and beachfront, so this may be the best one for you if you decide you want an active vacation.
Otherwise, if you prefer to admire more natural beauty, you can count on Orcas Island, as it is known for its beautiful yet at times rugged forest. This island is perfect for those of us who prefer a calmer vacation, as it is more remote and quiet.
If you are the active type, Lopez Island is the one for you, as it is mainly full of open fields and amazing, rolling hills, so if you love to bike, this island is going to be heaven for you. Similarly to Orcas, the island is quaint and relaxing, giving you the chance to still be active on your relaxing vacation.
