Port Angeles

PA western bluff

Port Angeles is the next city west of Sequim. Like Sequim, it’s located on the Strait of Juan de Fuca but the city of Port Angeles rises from a deep water harbor and overlooks the Strait. This view shows part of the western residential area of the city. Part of a new waterfront promenade is at the lower left of the photo.

Coincidentally to this post, our local newspaper, Peninsula Daily News, yesterday announced that The Smithsonian has placed Port Angeles on its 2016 list of best small towns. The list is comprised of locations near favorite national parks “worthy of a visit.” Port Angeles is considered by many the “gateway” city to Olympic National Park which lies to its south.

  1. It’s a nice shot of a beautiful town and I’d be delighted to live there…except it’s probably too cold for these old bones. 🙂

    Re your comment about Dr. Seuss – you’re absolutely right. Again. Thanks!
