Olympic Peninsula RV Vacation
About the Olympic Peninsula, Washington
Situated across the Puget Sound from Seattle and stretching to the Pacific Ocean is the Olympic Peninsula. Because it has water on 3 sides of it, it tends to feel like an island and road trips around here typically follow the coast, giving visitors incredible views around the entire loop. Within it lies many incredible stops, such as Olympic National Park, Hoh Rain Forest, coastal towns, tribe lands, hot springs and picturesque beaches, just to name a few. There is so much to do and see in the Olympic Peninsula that you can spend your entire vacation here and probably not fit it all in. Although we typically recommend staying in one place for more than a night, this is the type of road trip where you are moving a little bit every day to take it all in.
Best time to visit:
April through September
Highlights
Hike the lush, green wonderland of Hoh Rain Forest
Take in the spectacular mountain views at Hurricane Ridge
Look for whales, sea otters, seals and more wildlife at Rialto and Mora Beaches
