Ebey's Landing

  I didn't get to hike last weekend so I went on my 27th hike this year somewhere close to home which allowed me to hike after work. I decided to hike one of the locals favorite trails along the ocean which is called Ebey's Landing National Historical Reserve. This trail is located near Coupeville, Washington on Whidbey Island. They have a bluff trail going north and then down the hill to the beach to hike the beach trail south back to the trailhead.
  This hike is about 3.5 miles long with spectacular view of Pudget Sound, Whidbey Island and Olympic Mountains. If you have a love for hiking like I do, I would recommend this trail even if you had to drive three hours to get here. You could combined it with Deception Pass State Park or Dugalla State Park which also have great views of the ocean and sound.
  I have hiked all of them and this hike still has the best views of the sound from the bluff trail. Fort Ebey and Fort Casey which are two other areas you could combined with this hike also have bluff trails with great views. Come check out this hike. If not you can checkout the video of this hike or over 180 other trails I have hiked on my youtube channel at "lmm3181" or click on these direct links.
