Low Tide at Crescent Beach, Port Angeles
Although Sequim beaches have their own unique beauty, I find that Salt Creek Recreation in PA offers a landscape I’m most drawn to as a photographer, and Tongue Point Marine Life Sanctuary and the tide pools to be a delight at low tide as well.
At less than 35 miles from Sequim, a day trip is entirely do-able and preferred, unless of course, you’re a camper and choose to take your rig or tent into the adjacent Clallam County Park, located on a former WWII military installation with campsites and spectacular trails with views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca.
But I prefer the beach, at low tide and low angle, to gain a perspective that many may never see. And on a warm day, to make the visit more memorable, I recommend removing one’s shoes and sinking one’s toes in the sand; then you’ll not only see it, but feel it – and you’ll never forget it!
