What can I see and do at Lime Kiln State Park?
The waterfront picnic tables and trails look out over Haro Strait, which is a common place to spot passing orca whales. The nearby picturesque lighthouse makes its way onto postcards for good reason.
- You can make the short walk to the shore easily or strike out along the paths that crisscross the shore and forest.
- The Park property is adjacent to even more public land so you can wander for quite some time on the rough paths.
- Try heading uphill from the old kiln at the north end of the Park. You can get some amazing views from the higher rocky bluffs.
