Bring the kids along to Whatcom Falls Park and Boat Tours & Water Sports. You'll find plenty of places to visit near Bellingham: Deception Pass State Park (in Oak Harbor), Fort Ebey State Park (in Coupeville) and Anacortes (Anacortes Maritime Heritage Center and W T Preston, Causland Memorial Park, &more).
