Lime Kiln Point State Park, Friday Harbor

One of my all time favorite spots on the island. Please sponsor or participate in whale watching from land, it is the easiest way to respect the marine wildlife and help the southern resident killer whales. There are lots of hidden spots in this area that are gorgeous and devoid of tourists. The old lime kiln is worth checking out. Dr. Otis is a highly intelligent and just overall amazing individual whose whale talks are worth going to. He knows his stuff and can answer any questions.

The light 'house' is super small. There's a small window in this 'house' atop the gorgeous bluff that faces the ocean that has been turned into a mop closet, that seems strange. The area around this whale observation point is well maintained and easy walking. We saw porpoises, a sea lion that was headed south along the kelp with purpose. Lots of birds and a beautiful sunset. Don't forget to bring your binoculars, if the weather is right you might see Victoria.
