"Lighthouse Manor" is a new and beautiful 3-bedroom, two-story
home right on the beach of Dungeness Bay (on the Straits of Juan de
Fuca). You cannot get any closer to the water (unless, of course,
you jump in!!)
Watch the cruise ships, cargo ships and submarines cruise through
the glorious Straits of Juan de Fuca. Take in the spectacular views
of Mt. Baker, the lights of Victoria BC., and the New Dungeness
Lighthouse. Bald eagles and seals are regular visitors.
As if these ocean vistas were not enough for your eyes, the
opposite side of our home faces the majestic Olympic mountains. You
will see some of the most spectacular sunsets over these snow-capped
jewels.
Sequim (pronounced "skwim") offers so many great activities and
attractions:
* Dungeness Spit (for those folks up for a great hike) (10 min);
* Lavender Farms galore (5 min); * Olympic Game Farm (5 min); * Ferry
across the Straits to Victoria B.C. (30 min); * Hurricane Ridge (40
min); * Local kayaking tours (5 mn); * Fishing and crabbing on site);
* Several nice golf courses (10 min); * Shopping (15 min); * John
Wayne Marina (15 min); * Port Angeles Airport (30 min); * Port
Townsend (30 min); * Seattle (1.5 hrs) * Victoria B.C. (1.5 hr)
You won't run out of things to do.
But you may just want to sit on the beach all day and soak in the
views and the salt air.
The town of Sequim (15 minute drive from the beach house) has
quaint shops as well as grocery stores and many restaurants. For
those planning to stay for a while, there is a Costco and a WalMart
just 30 minutes away.
Sequim has the lowest rainfall in the Puget Sound region. Less
than 14 inches a year!!! It is called the "blue hole" by pilots as it
usually visible from the skies above. It boasts a huge retirement
community because of the weather, golf and proximity to so many
nearby attractions.
Many people use Sequim as a home base to explore Washington's
glorious Olympic Peninsula and Victoria BC, Canada.
