A HOP, SKIP AND A JUMP FROM VICTORIA!

One of the great things about Olympic National Park that people tend to overlook is that it is INCREDIBLY accessible by water! If you live on or are visiting Vancouver Island in Canada, all you have to do is take the Coho ferry from Victoria to go on an epic, natural adventure in one of America’s most beautiful national parks. Of course, that means getting an unrivalled view of the Olympic Peninsula from a few hundred yards off the coast!

Visiting Port Angeles? Make your trip international by popping over to Canada for a day trip. The people are friendly, and Victoria is beautifully quaint. It’s a great way to recover from an ambitious hike day!
