      Hi Veronica, thank you watching! We were there in July of 2022. We found the tide schedule at a Visitor Center in Forks, WA but you can also use www.tideschart.com!
      Happy travels!

      Hey thanks for the comment! We don’t have a blog post about this stop but we have an Instagram highlight (Olympic, WA) about things to do close to there. If you open the link on a mobile device you’ll have to search the specific highlight otherwise on a desktop the link should take you directly to the highlight!

    Hi, Wanderlust. Wow, I haven't heard of this place while Kayak7seas and I were at Seattle and San Juan Island, WA.
    OMG, these waterfalls split in a couple ways. Gorgeous and robust!
    How did you do in golf? Oh..no..muddy..4:18 Yes, walking the beach is wonderful.
    OMG, you were there at low tide, so I can actually kayak at this sea cave? 6:58
    Wow, do I have to walk on the log, too?7:32
    Hmmm the wine tasting is tempting. The sunset timelapse is very crafty.
    I am curious if there is some unique kayaking place in NZ. Can you see seals>=? Sea lions in wild? Volcanoes?
    Thank you very much.

      @WanderLustInRealLife  Рік тому

      Hey thank you for your comment and happy to see you enjoyed our video! We were pulling an RV and decided to drive the entire way so we took a longer route down and around through Tacoma and up through Hood Canal Floating Bridge! Highly recommend if you have the time!

    • @WanderLustInRealLife
      @WanderLustInRealLife  2 місяці тому +1

      Hi thank you for your comment! In general, we would say to always be prepared for rain when visiting Washington. June and July are not known to be the rainiest months but again, always be prepared.
      To get to Port Angeles, you can either take a ferry or drive down to Tacoma and up along the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, which is what we did. If you have the time, highly recommend the drive through Tacoma!

    What month you went there to Olympic national? And just for a day activity how much the entrance fee or if there’s any additional fee when you go hike in this park?

    • @WanderLustInRealLife
      @WanderLustInRealLife  Рік тому +1

      Hi and thanks for your comment. We were there in July of 2022. As for the cost, I believe it’s around $30 per vehicle for a day pass. But if you plan to see at least 3 parks in the same year, it’s better to get an annual pass. Those are around $80.

    • @anushaamilineni
      @anushaamilineni Рік тому

      the entrance fee is $30 and valid for 7 days

    Horrible video, no information about anything. What time of day did you get to places, are the hike difficult or easy? I see you had rain clothing so I assume I need rain gear? How long should it take someone to see everything? And you speak, stop turning away from the camera because when you do that we can't hear what you are saying. Everyone else who has commented is asking questions too.

    • @WanderLustInRealLife
      @WanderLustInRealLife  Рік тому

      Sorry you feel it was horrible and got no value out of it. We were (and still are) learning. Most places visited were from 8am - 2pm except for the food/drink which was in the evening. The hikes are all moderate to easy and to see everything we did we'd say give yourself at least 2 full days. It's recommended to always carry rain gear with you while in the Pacific North West. As you can see, everyone who has responded asking a question has received a response, so thank you for your questions.
