Salt Creek — Saturday, Jan. 18, 2025

Olympic Peninsula > Northern Coast

 Summary: This is a great option for a beach hike in the Port Angeles area, with the added benefit of being dog friendly. The trail winds through a pretty campground, with multiple stops at scenic overlooks and opportunities to drop down to various coves. The beach itself is stunning, with views of Mt Baker and across the Salish Sea to Canada. There’s a nice sea stack at the beach to explore. Go at low tide for excellent tide pooling. Plenty of free parking this time of year and minimal crowds. 

Stats:

  • Round trip distance: 3.12 miles
  • Elevation gain: 320 ft
