The stacks are vertical columns of rock formed from wind and wave erosion over long periods of time, part of coastal geomorphology. Ruby Beach has a very large amount of driftwood. The tides bring in wood that has fallen into the ocean and it resides on the beach, sometimes void of bark and bleached from the sun.

If you love to hike, there are quite a few short trails directly off Highway 101 that offer beach access. The Kalaloch area offers a lodge or campground for overnight stays.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>But perhaps the most iconic part of Kalaloch Beach is the <a href=\"https:\/\/unusualplaces.org\/the-magical-tree-of-life-in-kalaloch-beach-washington\/\">Tree of Life<\/a>. It actually has no official name and is also sometimes known as The Runaway Tree or the Kalaloch Tree. Whatever you call it, it\u2019s a Sitka spruce, which is the largest of the spruce trees. The Sitka spruce is known for its significant height and vast trunk, which make the situation for this particular tree even more intriguing. The tree is hanging onto the coastal bluff on either side of it by its immense root system and quite honestly, nothing else. It\u2019s a very cool attraction of the Kalaloch Beach area.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2>(Kalaloch) Beach 4<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Grab your tide chart for Beach 4.

Also be aware that the hike to the beach is rather steep, so those with mobility issues may have trouble reaching it.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/second-beach-trail.htm#CP_JUMP_155117\">La Push Beach (Second Beach\/Beach Two)<\/a><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Consisting of beach chains along the Pacific Coastline at the westernmost part of the United States, La Push Beach is said to have some of the most beautiful sunsets to witness. The beaches of La Push Beach are Beach One, Beach Two, and Beach Three.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The trails to Second Beach begin at the Quileute Indian Reservation and it\u2019s about a mile hike to the beach. The flattest and longest of the three beaches, Second Beach is the most popular.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Naturally populating the shore of Second Beach are Evergreen, Sitka, and Spruce trees. You\u2019ll also see an archipelago about half a mile off the shore. On the small islands are sea stacks dispersed throughout and called the Quileute Needle. Part of Quillayute Needles National Wildlife Refuge, these islands and sea stacks are protected by the wildlife preserve. Also protected are many of the coastal creatures, many of which frequent the sea stacks. Some of these creatures include gulls, oystercatchers, and seabirds. You may also see bald eagles and seals. In March and April and later in October, whale migration takes place and is occasionally spotted.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>A unique experience at Second Beach is camping. This camping is classified as Wilderness Camping and does require a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-reservations.htm\">permit<\/a>, which must be obtained prior to your stay. Only 12 people are allowed per camping group. If you have more than 12 people, you must stay a mile apart and no more than 12 people can be together at one time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Part of the reasoning is that Second Beach practices <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-leave-no-trace.htm\">\u201cLeave No Trace\u201d<\/a> camping. While these aren\u2019t regulations, but simply guidelines, everyone is encouraged to participate. Consider the fact that around 40,000 visitors are backpacking in Olympic National Park each year. If we didn\u2019t all do our part to maintain the wild character, vegetation, and coastal forests of the park, it would cease to be so beautiful for future generations. Larger groups make it more difficult to leave the area the way you found it.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>A way of protecting the coastal forests is to only build campfires on the beach and only burn driftwood, not the trees that populate the area. There are some forested sites for camping, but mostly beach camping is available, although spots are scarce in the summer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>A way to protect yourself from the local wildlife is to use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-food-storage.htm\">bear canisters<\/a>. It\u2019s important to store all food or scented items (both overnight and when unattended) where bears and other animals won\u2019t smell them. Some canisters are available for loan with a permit, but you may consider bringing your own, since they aren\u2019t guaranteed and the park often runs out on busy weekends.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Whether you choose to stay overnight and camp (there is a pit toilet, by the way) or just walk the trail and visit the beach for the day, the views are breathtaking, the rock formations are incredible, and the beach is well maintained. It\u2019s a true wildlife experience.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/shi-shi-beach-olympic-wilderness.htm\">Shi Shi Beach<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wta.org\/go-hiking\/hikes\/shi-shi-beach-and-point-of-arches\">Point of Arches<\/a><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Get ready to hike to one of the Pacific Northwest\u2019s most scenic and most photographed locations. The 8-mile round trip hike is absolutely worth every minute for the beach and water views, the sea stacks, the tidepools, and the various wildlife you\u2019ll view along the way.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>To hike and explore or especially to camp, you\u2019ll need two passes for this area. You\u2019ll need the <a href=\"https:\/\/makah.com\/activities\/\">Makah Recreation Pass<\/a>, which can be purchased at a few different locations in Neah Bay. The cost will be $20, but it is good for an entire calendar year. The other pass is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-reservations.htm\">Olympic National Park wilderness permit<\/a>. This is available at the visitor center in Port Angeles or at the Lake Quinault South Shore Ranger Station (when it\u2019s open).&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Once your passes are obtained, you\u2019ll set out near the fish hatchery, where the trailhead is. The first mile should be smooth sailing on a recently-rehabilitated trail that will take you through brush and&nbsp; Sitka Spruce groves. You\u2019ll also find a few boardwalks to cross and bridges to traverse.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The second mile, however, is almost always wet and muddy, making it more of a challenge to hike. But the reward at the end of this mile is well worth the effort. You\u2019ll come to the edge of a bluff and take an eroded trail into Olympic National Park and onto Shi Shi Beach.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>You\u2019ll have a little over a mile of beach to enjoy. Be sure to slow down and take in the waves crashing on the sea stacks, the bleached driftwood on the shore, and the multitude of birds circling overhead. After crossing Petroleum Creek, you\u2019ll see campsites come into view. Keep going and you\u2019ll stumble upon the Point of Arches, a mile of really cool rocky sea stacks!<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Especially at low tide, you\u2019ll be able to explore the tide pools and view the coastal critters who inhabit the area, so be sure to grab a map and tide chart to plan your timing and route. This is one of the most beautiful and scenic views you may ever experience. Many photographers set up camp on Shi Shi Beach and spend a few days capturing the perfect sunset over the sea stacks at Point of Arches.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Camping is permitted at Shi Shi Beach, but, just as with Second Beach, you are encouraged to practice \u201cLeave No Trace\u201d camping. It\u2019s also essential to have park-approved bear canisters for all your scented and food items. There are a couple of toilets available in the area as well.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wta.org\/go-hiking\/hikes\/cape-alava\">Cape Alava<\/a><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Go ahead and commit to the six-mile round trip forested hike to get to Cape Alava. One of Olympic National Park\u2019s most distinctive beaches, Cape Alava is a rocky beach.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>But attached to the rocky shoreline is a sandy bit of land that connects to the westernmost point of the continental United States: Tskawahyah Island. While Tsanawiyah Island isn\u2019t open to the public, it\u2019s definitely worth seeing from a distance. The views from Cape Alava are incredible and definitely worth a visit.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>For those who are a little more adventurous in their hiking, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/ozette-loop.htm\">Ozette Triangle Loop Trail<\/a> is 9.4 miles long and includes the forest, boardwalks, the beach, as well as Cape Alava. If this seems too daunting for one day, consider camping overnight at the Cape Alava Campground. Be sure to have your permit and bear canisters on-hand.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/visiting-mora-and-rialto.htm\">Rialto Beach<\/a><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>One of the most accessible beaches in Olympic National Park, Rialto Beach is a great stop.

Just as with the other beaches in Olympic National Park, Rialto Beach has no shortage of sea stacks and driftwood logs. One unique feature is that this beach is filled with multicolored stones.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>For the adventurous types, during low tide, you can take a 2-mile beach hike to find a place called Hole-In-The-Wall: some of Washington\u2019s most delightful to photograph sea stacks and tide pools. But you don\u2019t have to venture anywhere to enjoy a beautiful sunset over the Pacific Ocean along this amazing stretch of the wild coast of Washington.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3>Which is better, Rialto Beach or Ruby Beach?<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Both Rialto Beach and Ruby Beach are beautiful destinations on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Rialto Beach is known for its stunning sea stacks and black sand beach, while Ruby Beach is famous for its picturesque driftwood and tide pools.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The better choice between the two depends on your personal preferences. If you prefer a darker, more rugged coastline with unique rock formations, Rialto Beach may be the better option for you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>On the other hand, if you're looking for a serene beach with plenty of opportunities to explore tide pools and admire natural scenery, Ruby Beach might be more up your alley.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3>Which beach has the best sunset in Olympic National Park?<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Ruby Beach is one of the most popular spots in Olympic National Park to watch the sunset.

But in 1938, President Franklin Roosefelt re-designated this beautiful area as Olympic National Park. Located on the west coast, Olympic National Park is just across the Salish Sea from Canada.\u00a0<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The 1964 Wilderness Act defined wilderness as \u201c...an area where the earth and its community of life are untrammeled by man, where man himself is a visitor who does not remain.\u201d Olympic National Park has tons of wilderness to explore year round.

A popular destination for ocean kayakers, it\u2019s also well known for its miles of beach to explore.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Along Ruby Beach you\u2019ll find unique rock formations called stacks or sea stacks as well as incredible, natural driftwood sculptures. The stacks are vertical columns of rock formed from wind and wave erosion over long periods of time, part of coastal geomorphology. Ruby Beach has a very large amount of driftwood. The tides bring in wood that has fallen into the ocean and it resides on the beach, sometimes void of bark and bleached from the sun. Driftwood provides homes for fish, birds, and other aquatic species while it floats in the ocean. It can also provide shelter for birds or small animals once ashore.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Ruby Beach is likely named for the ruby-like crystals in the sand, although they may not be very apparent or abundant. Your eyes will likely be distracted by the beauty of your surroundings, anyway. The beach itself is a rocky beach and therefore less of a \u201clay down and relax in the sand\u201d beach and more of an \u201cexplore the incredible sea stacks and look for cool driftwood pieces\u201d beach. The \u201ceyes\u201d is perhaps the most famous rock formation on Ruby Beach. It\u2019s a great spot to take some unique photos.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The marine air in the area often makes it appear foggy. If you look out about four miles southwest of the beach, you may be able to see Destruction Island and the lighthouse there. Due to the marine air, you may not be able to get good pictures of it, but you should be able to see it. The island was named Destruction Island in remembrance of the two separate battles that took place here between the Quinault Tribe and British and Spanish explorers later in the 1700s.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2>Kalaloch Beach<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Not far from Ruby Beach, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/visiting-kalaloch-and-ruby-beach.htm\">Kalaloch Beach<\/a> is a gorgeous 15 mile stretch of wide, sandy beach, stretching along the Pacific coastline.

The Kalaloch area offers a lodge or campground for overnight stays.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>But perhaps the most iconic part of Kalaloch Beach is the <a href=\"https:\/\/unusualplaces.org\/the-magical-tree-of-life-in-kalaloch-beach-washington\/\">Tree of Life<\/a>. It actually has no official name and is also sometimes known as The Runaway Tree or the Kalaloch Tree. Whatever you call it, it\u2019s a Sitka spruce, which is the largest of the spruce trees. The Sitka spruce is known for its significant height and vast trunk, which make the situation for this particular tree even more intriguing.

The stacks are vertical columns of rock formed from wind and wave erosion over long periods of time, part of coastal geomorphology. Ruby Beach has a very large amount of driftwood. The tides bring in wood that has fallen into the ocean and it resides on the beach, sometimes void of bark and bleached from the sun.

If you love to hike, there are quite a few short trails directly off Highway 101 that offer beach access. The Kalaloch area offers a lodge or campground for overnight stays.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>But perhaps the most iconic part of Kalaloch Beach is the <a href=\"https:\/\/unusualplaces.org\/the-magical-tree-of-life-in-kalaloch-beach-washington\/\">Tree of Life<\/a>. It actually has no official name and is also sometimes known as The Runaway Tree or the Kalaloch Tree. Whatever you call it, it\u2019s a Sitka spruce, which is the largest of the spruce trees. The Sitka spruce is known for its significant height and vast trunk, which make the situation for this particular tree even more intriguing. The tree is hanging onto the coastal bluff on either side of it by its immense root system and quite honestly, nothing else. It\u2019s a very cool attraction of the Kalaloch Beach area.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2>(Kalaloch) Beach 4<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Grab your tide chart for Beach 4. About halfway between Kalaloch Beach and Ruby Beach, this beach is full of tidepools. This is a sandy, large, crescent-shaped beach that is teeming with fantastic geologic formations and fascinating sea creatures.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Beach 4 is a marine wildlife preserve that is protected by Olympic National Park and is also joined with the Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary. You\u2019ll observe large gooseneck barnacles, giant green anemones, aggregating anemones, and much much more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>You\u2019ll want to arrive at low tide and bring waterproof shoes that have great traction, as you\u2019ll be climbing over slippery rocks to see the tidepools. Also be aware that the hike to the beach is rather steep, so those with mobility issues may have trouble reaching it.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/second-beach-trail.htm#CP_JUMP_155117\">La Push Beach (Second Beach\/Beach Two)<\/a><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Consisting of beach chains along the Pacific Coastline at the westernmost part of the United States, La Push Beach is said to have some of the most beautiful sunsets to witness. The beaches of La Push Beach are Beach One, Beach Two, and Beach Three.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The trails to Second Beach begin at the Quileute Indian Reservation and it\u2019s about a mile hike to the beach. The flattest and longest of the three beaches, Second Beach is the most popular.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Naturally populating the shore of Second Beach are Evergreen, Sitka, and Spruce trees. You\u2019ll also see an archipelago about half a mile off the shore. On the small islands are sea stacks dispersed throughout and called the Quileute Needle. Part of Quillayute Needles National Wildlife Refuge, these islands and sea stacks are protected by the wildlife preserve. Also protected are many of the coastal creatures, many of which frequent the sea stacks. Some of these creatures include gulls, oystercatchers, and seabirds. You may also see bald eagles and seals. In March and April and later in October, whale migration takes place and is occasionally spotted.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>A unique experience at Second Beach is camping. This camping is classified as Wilderness Camping and does require a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-reservations.htm\">permit<\/a>, which must be obtained prior to your stay. Only 12 people are allowed per camping group. If you have more than 12 people, you must stay a mile apart and no more than 12 people can be together at one time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Part of the reasoning is that Second Beach practices <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-leave-no-trace.htm\">\u201cLeave No Trace\u201d<\/a> camping. While these aren\u2019t regulations, but simply guidelines, everyone is encouraged to participate. Consider the fact that around 40,000 visitors are backpacking in Olympic National Park each year. If we didn\u2019t all do our part to maintain the wild character, vegetation, and coastal forests of the park, it would cease to be so beautiful for future generations. Larger groups make it more difficult to leave the area the way you found it.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>A way of protecting the coastal forests is to only build campfires on the beach and only burn driftwood, not the trees that populate the area. There are some forested sites for camping, but mostly beach camping is available, although spots are scarce in the summer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>A way to protect yourself from the local wildlife is to use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-food-storage.htm\">bear canisters<\/a>. It\u2019s important to store all food or scented items (both overnight and when unattended) where bears and other animals won\u2019t smell them. Some canisters are available for loan with a permit, but you may consider bringing your own, since they aren\u2019t guaranteed and the park often runs out on busy weekends.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Whether you choose to stay overnight and camp (there is a pit toilet, by the way) or just walk the trail and visit the beach for the day, the views are breathtaking, the rock formations are incredible, and the beach is well maintained. It\u2019s a true wildlife experience.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/shi-shi-beach-olympic-wilderness.htm\">Shi Shi Beach<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wta.org\/go-hiking\/hikes\/shi-shi-beach-and-point-of-arches\">Point of Arches<\/a><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Get ready to hike to one of the Pacific Northwest\u2019s most scenic and most photographed locations. The 8-mile round trip hike is absolutely worth every minute for the beach and water views, the sea stacks, the tidepools, and the various wildlife you\u2019ll view along the way.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>To hike and explore or especially to camp, you\u2019ll need two passes for this area. You\u2019ll need the <a href=\"https:\/\/makah.com\/activities\/\">Makah Recreation Pass<\/a>, which can be purchased at a few different locations in Neah Bay. The cost will be $20, but it is good for an entire calendar year. The other pass is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-reservations.htm\">Olympic National Park wilderness permit<\/a>. This is available at the visitor center in Port Angeles or at the Lake Quinault South Shore Ranger Station (when it\u2019s open).&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Once your passes are obtained, you\u2019ll set out near the fish hatchery, where the trailhead is. The first mile should be smooth sailing on a recently-rehabilitated trail that will take you through brush and&nbsp; Sitka Spruce groves. You\u2019ll also find a few boardwalks to cross and bridges to traverse.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The second mile, however, is almost always wet and muddy, making it more of a challenge to hike. But the reward at the end of this mile is well worth the effort. You\u2019ll come to the edge of a bluff and take an eroded trail into Olympic National Park and onto Shi Shi Beach.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>You\u2019ll have a little over a mile of beach to enjoy. Be sure to slow down and take in the waves crashing on the sea stacks, the bleached driftwood on the shore, and the multitude of birds circling overhead. After crossing Petroleum Creek, you\u2019ll see campsites come into view. Keep going and you\u2019ll stumble upon the Point of Arches, a mile of really cool rocky sea stacks!<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Especially at low tide, you\u2019ll be able to explore the tide pools and view the coastal critters who inhabit the area, so be sure to grab a map and tide chart to plan your timing and route. This is one of the most beautiful and scenic views you may ever experience. Many photographers set up camp on Shi Shi Beach and spend a few days capturing the perfect sunset over the sea stacks at Point of Arches.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Camping is permitted at Shi Shi Beach, but, just as with Second Beach, you are encouraged to practice \u201cLeave No Trace\u201d camping. It\u2019s also essential to have park-approved bear canisters for all your scented and food items. There are a couple of toilets available in the area as well.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wta.org\/go-hiking\/hikes\/cape-alava\">Cape Alava<\/a><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Go ahead and commit to the six-mile round trip forested hike to get to Cape Alava. One of Olympic National Park\u2019s most distinctive beaches, Cape Alava is a rocky beach.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>But attached to the rocky shoreline is a sandy bit of land that connects to the westernmost point of the continental United States: Tskawahyah Island. While Tsanawiyah Island isn\u2019t open to the public, it\u2019s definitely worth seeing from a distance. The views from Cape Alava are incredible and definitely worth a visit.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>For those who are a little more adventurous in their hiking, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/ozette-loop.htm\">Ozette Triangle Loop Trail<\/a> is 9.4 miles long and includes the forest, boardwalks, the beach, as well as Cape Alava. If this seems too daunting for one day, consider camping overnight at the Cape Alava Campground.

The stacks are vertical columns of rock formed from wind and wave erosion over long periods of time, part of coastal geomorphology. Ruby Beach has a very large amount of driftwood. The tides bring in wood that has fallen into the ocean and it resides on the beach, sometimes void of bark and bleached from the sun. Driftwood provides homes for fish, birds, and other aquatic species while it floats in the ocean. It can also provide shelter for birds or small animals once ashore.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Ruby Beach is likely named for the ruby-like crystals in the sand, although they may not be very apparent or abundant.

A popular destination for ocean kayakers, it\u2019s also well known for its miles of beach to explore.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Along Ruby Beach you\u2019ll find unique rock formations called stacks or sea stacks as well as incredible, natural driftwood sculptures. The stacks are vertical columns of rock formed from wind and wave erosion over long periods of time, part of coastal geomorphology. Ruby Beach has a very large amount of driftwood. The tides bring in wood that has fallen into the ocean and it resides on the beach, sometimes void of bark and bleached from the sun. Driftwood provides homes for fish, birds, and other aquatic species while it floats in the ocean. It can also provide shelter for birds or small animals once ashore.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Ruby Beach is likely named for the ruby-like crystals in the sand, although they may not be very apparent or abundant.

If you look out about four miles southwest of the beach, you may be able to see Destruction Island and the lighthouse there. Due to the marine air, you may not be able to get good pictures of it, but you should be able to see it. The island was named Destruction Island in remembrance of the two separate battles that took place here between the Quinault Tribe and British and Spanish explorers later in the 1700s.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2>Kalaloch Beach<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Not far from Ruby Beach, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/visiting-kalaloch-and-ruby-beach.htm\">Kalaloch Beach<\/a> is a gorgeous 15 mile stretch of wide, sandy beach, stretching along the Pacific coastline. If you love to hike, there are quite a few short trails directly off Highway 101 that offer beach access. The Kalaloch area offers a lodge or campground for overnight stays.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>But perhaps the most iconic part of Kalaloch Beach is the <a href=\"https:\/\/unusualplaces.org\/the-magical-tree-of-life-in-kalaloch-beach-washington\/\">Tree of Life<\/a>. It actually has no official name and is also sometimes known as The Runaway Tree or the Kalaloch Tree. Whatever you call it, it\u2019s a Sitka spruce, which is the largest of the spruce trees. The Sitka spruce is known for its significant height and vast trunk, which make the situation for this particular tree even more intriguing. The tree is hanging onto the coastal bluff on either side of it by its immense root system and quite honestly, nothing else. It\u2019s a very cool attraction of the Kalaloch Beach area.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2>(Kalaloch) Beach 4<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Grab your tide chart for Beach 4. About halfway between Kalaloch Beach and Ruby Beach, this beach is full of tidepools. This is a sandy, large, crescent-shaped beach that is teeming with fantastic geologic formations and fascinating sea creatures.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Beach 4 is a marine wildlife preserve that is protected by Olympic National Park and is also joined with the Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary. You\u2019ll observe large gooseneck barnacles, giant green anemones, aggregating anemones, and much much more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>You\u2019ll want to arrive at low tide and bring waterproof shoes that have great traction, as you\u2019ll be climbing over slippery rocks to see the tidepools. Also be aware that the hike to the beach is rather steep, so those with mobility issues may have trouble reaching it.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/second-beach-trail.htm#CP_JUMP_155117\">La Push Beach (Second Beach\/Beach Two)<\/a><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Consisting of beach chains along the Pacific Coastline at the westernmost part of the United States, La Push Beach is said to have some of the most beautiful sunsets to witness. The beaches of La Push Beach are Beach One, Beach Two, and Beach Three.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The trails to Second Beach begin at the Quileute Indian Reservation and it\u2019s about a mile hike to the beach. The flattest and longest of the three beaches, Second Beach is the most popular.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Naturally populating the shore of Second Beach are Evergreen, Sitka, and Spruce trees. You\u2019ll also see an archipelago about half a mile off the shore. On the small islands are sea stacks dispersed throughout and called the Quileute Needle. Part of Quillayute Needles National Wildlife Refuge, these islands and sea stacks are protected by the wildlife preserve. Also protected are many of the coastal creatures, many of which frequent the sea stacks. Some of these creatures include gulls, oystercatchers, and seabirds. You may also see bald eagles and seals. In March and April and later in October, whale migration takes place and is occasionally spotted.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>A unique experience at Second Beach is camping. This camping is classified as Wilderness Camping and does require a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-reservations.htm\">permit<\/a>, which must be obtained prior to your stay. Only 12 people are allowed per camping group. If you have more than 12 people, you must stay a mile apart and no more than 12 people can be together at one time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Part of the reasoning is that Second Beach practices <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-leave-no-trace.htm\">\u201cLeave No Trace\u201d<\/a> camping. While these aren\u2019t regulations, but simply guidelines, everyone is encouraged to participate. Consider the fact that around 40,000 visitors are backpacking in Olympic National Park each year. If we didn\u2019t all do our part to maintain the wild character, vegetation, and coastal forests of the park, it would cease to be so beautiful for future generations. Larger groups make it more difficult to leave the area the way you found it.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>A way of protecting the coastal forests is to only build campfires on the beach and only burn driftwood, not the trees that populate the area. There are some forested sites for camping, but mostly beach camping is available, although spots are scarce in the summer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>A way to protect yourself from the local wildlife is to use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-food-storage.htm\">bear canisters<\/a>. It\u2019s important to store all food or scented items (both overnight and when unattended) where bears and other animals won\u2019t smell them. Some canisters are available for loan with a permit, but you may consider bringing your own, since they aren\u2019t guaranteed and the park often runs out on busy weekends.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Whether you choose to stay overnight and camp (there is a pit toilet, by the way) or just walk the trail and visit the beach for the day, the views are breathtaking, the rock formations are incredible, and the beach is well maintained. It\u2019s a true wildlife experience.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/shi-shi-beach-olympic-wilderness.htm\">Shi Shi Beach<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wta.org\/go-hiking\/hikes\/shi-shi-beach-and-point-of-arches\">Point of Arches<\/a><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Get ready to hike to one of the Pacific Northwest\u2019s most scenic and most photographed locations. The 8-mile round trip hike is absolutely worth every minute for the beach and water views, the sea stacks, the tidepools, and the various wildlife you\u2019ll view along the way.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>To hike and explore or especially to camp, you\u2019ll need two passes for this area. You\u2019ll need the <a href=\"https:\/\/makah.com\/activities\/\">Makah Recreation Pass<\/a>, which can be purchased at a few different locations in Neah Bay. The cost will be $20, but it is good for an entire calendar year. The other pass is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-reservations.htm\">Olympic National Park wilderness permit<\/a>. This is available at the visitor center in Port Angeles or at the Lake Quinault South Shore Ranger Station (when it\u2019s open).&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Once your passes are obtained, you\u2019ll set out near the fish hatchery, where the trailhead is. The first mile should be smooth sailing on a recently-rehabilitated trail that will take you through brush and&nbsp; Sitka Spruce groves. You\u2019ll also find a few boardwalks to cross and bridges to traverse.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The second mile, however, is almost always wet and muddy, making it more of a challenge to hike. But the reward at the end of this mile is well worth the effort. You\u2019ll come to the edge of a bluff and take an eroded trail into Olympic National Park and onto Shi Shi Beach.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>You\u2019ll have a little over a mile of beach to enjoy. Be sure to slow down and take in the waves crashing on the sea stacks, the bleached driftwood on the shore, and the multitude of birds circling overhead. After crossing Petroleum Creek, you\u2019ll see campsites come into view. Keep going and you\u2019ll stumble upon the Point of Arches, a mile of really cool rocky sea stacks!<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Especially at low tide, you\u2019ll be able to explore the tide pools and view the coastal critters who inhabit the area, so be sure to grab a map and tide chart to plan your timing and route. This is one of the most beautiful and scenic views you may ever experience. Many photographers set up camp on Shi Shi Beach and spend a few days capturing the perfect sunset over the sea stacks at Point of Arches.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Camping is permitted at Shi Shi Beach, but, just as with Second Beach, you are encouraged to practice \u201cLeave No Trace\u201d camping. It\u2019s also essential to have park-approved bear canisters for all your scented and food items. There are a couple of toilets available in the area as well.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wta.org\/go-hiking\/hikes\/cape-alava\">Cape Alava<\/a><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Go ahead and commit to the six-mile round trip forested hike to get to Cape Alava.

While Tsanawiyah Island isn\u2019t open to the public, it\u2019s definitely worth seeing from a distance. The views from Cape Alava are incredible and definitely worth a visit.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>For those who are a little more adventurous in their hiking, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/ozette-loop.htm\">Ozette Triangle Loop Trail<\/a> is 9.4 miles long and includes the forest, boardwalks, the beach, as well as Cape Alava.

The \u201ceyes\u201d is perhaps the most famous rock formation on Ruby Beach. It\u2019s a great spot to take some unique photos.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The marine air in the area often makes it appear foggy. If you look out about four miles southwest of the beach, you may be able to see Destruction Island and the lighthouse there. Due to the marine air, you may not be able to get good pictures of it, but you should be able to see it. The island was named Destruction Island in remembrance of the two separate battles that took place here between the Quinault Tribe and British and Spanish explorers later in the 1700s.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2>Kalaloch Beach<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Not far from Ruby Beach, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/visiting-kalaloch-and-ruby-beach.htm\">Kalaloch Beach<\/a> is a gorgeous 15 mile stretch of wide, sandy beach, stretching along the Pacific coastline. If you love to hike, there are quite a few short trails directly off Highway 101 that offer beach access. The Kalaloch area offers a lodge or campground for overnight stays.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>But perhaps the most iconic part of Kalaloch Beach is the <a href=\"https:\/\/unusualplaces.org\/the-magical-tree-of-life-in-kalaloch-beach-washington\/\">Tree of Life<\/a>. It actually has no official name and is also sometimes known as The Runaway Tree or the Kalaloch Tree. Whatever you call it, it\u2019s a Sitka spruce, which is the largest of the spruce trees. The Sitka spruce is known for its significant height and vast trunk, which make the situation for this particular tree even more intriguing. The tree is hanging onto the coastal bluff on either side of it by its immense root system and quite honestly, nothing else. It\u2019s a very cool attraction of the Kalaloch Beach area.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2>(Kalaloch) Beach 4<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Grab your tide chart for Beach 4. About halfway between Kalaloch Beach and Ruby Beach, this beach is full of tidepools. This is a sandy, large, crescent-shaped beach that is teeming with fantastic geologic formations and fascinating sea creatures.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Beach 4 is a marine wildlife preserve that is protected by Olympic National Park and is also joined with the Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary. You\u2019ll observe large gooseneck barnacles, giant green anemones, aggregating anemones, and much much more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>You\u2019ll want to arrive at low tide and bring waterproof shoes that have great traction, as you\u2019ll be climbing over slippery rocks to see the tidepools. Also be aware that the hike to the beach is rather steep, so those with mobility issues may have trouble reaching it.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/second-beach-trail.htm#CP_JUMP_155117\">La Push Beach (Second Beach\/Beach Two)<\/a><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Consisting of beach chains along the Pacific Coastline at the westernmost part of the United States, La Push Beach is said to have some of the most beautiful sunsets to witness. The beaches of La Push Beach are Beach One, Beach Two, and Beach Three.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The trails to Second Beach begin at the Quileute Indian Reservation and it\u2019s about a mile hike to the beach. The flattest and longest of the three beaches, Second Beach is the most popular.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Naturally populating the shore of Second Beach are Evergreen, Sitka, and Spruce trees. You\u2019ll also see an archipelago about half a mile off the shore. On the small islands are sea stacks dispersed throughout and called the Quileute Needle. Part of Quillayute Needles National Wildlife Refuge, these islands and sea stacks are protected by the wildlife preserve. Also protected are many of the coastal creatures, many of which frequent the sea stacks. Some of these creatures include gulls, oystercatchers, and seabirds. You may also see bald eagles and seals. In March and April and later in October, whale migration takes place and is occasionally spotted.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>A unique experience at Second Beach is camping. This camping is classified as Wilderness Camping and does require a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-reservations.htm\">permit<\/a>, which must be obtained prior to your stay. Only 12 people are allowed per camping group. If you have more than 12 people, you must stay a mile apart and no more than 12 people can be together at one time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Part of the reasoning is that Second Beach practices <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-leave-no-trace.htm\">\u201cLeave No Trace\u201d<\/a> camping. While these aren\u2019t regulations, but simply guidelines, everyone is encouraged to participate. Consider the fact that around 40,000 visitors are backpacking in Olympic National Park each year. If we didn\u2019t all do our part to maintain the wild character, vegetation, and coastal forests of the park, it would cease to be so beautiful for future generations. Larger groups make it more difficult to leave the area the way you found it.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>A way of protecting the coastal forests is to only build campfires on the beach and only burn driftwood, not the trees that populate the area. There are some forested sites for camping, but mostly beach camping is available, although spots are scarce in the summer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>A way to protect yourself from the local wildlife is to use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-food-storage.htm\">bear canisters<\/a>. It\u2019s important to store all food or scented items (both overnight and when unattended) where bears and other animals won\u2019t smell them. Some canisters are available for loan with a permit, but you may consider bringing your own, since they aren\u2019t guaranteed and the park often runs out on busy weekends.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Whether you choose to stay overnight and camp (there is a pit toilet, by the way) or just walk the trail and visit the beach for the day, the views are breathtaking, the rock formations are incredible, and the beach is well maintained. It\u2019s a true wildlife experience.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/shi-shi-beach-olympic-wilderness.htm\">Shi Shi Beach<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wta.org\/go-hiking\/hikes\/shi-shi-beach-and-point-of-arches\">Point of Arches<\/a><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Get ready to hike to one of the Pacific Northwest\u2019s most scenic and most photographed locations. The 8-mile round trip hike is absolutely worth every minute for the beach and water views, the sea stacks, the tidepools, and the various wildlife you\u2019ll view along the way.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>To hike and explore or especially to camp, you\u2019ll need two passes for this area. You\u2019ll need the <a href=\"https:\/\/makah.com\/activities\/\">Makah Recreation Pass<\/a>, which can be purchased at a few different locations in Neah Bay. The cost will be $20, but it is good for an entire calendar year. The other pass is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/wilderness-reservations.htm\">Olympic National Park wilderness permit<\/a>. This is available at the visitor center in Port Angeles or at the Lake Quinault South Shore Ranger Station (when it\u2019s open).&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Once your passes are obtained, you\u2019ll set out near the fish hatchery, where the trailhead is. The first mile should be smooth sailing on a recently-rehabilitated trail that will take you through brush and&nbsp; Sitka Spruce groves. You\u2019ll also find a few boardwalks to cross and bridges to traverse.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The second mile, however, is almost always wet and muddy, making it more of a challenge to hike. But the reward at the end of this mile is well worth the effort. You\u2019ll come to the edge of a bluff and take an eroded trail into Olympic National Park and onto Shi Shi Beach.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>You\u2019ll have a little over a mile of beach to enjoy. Be sure to slow down and take in the waves crashing on the sea stacks, the bleached driftwood on the shore, and the multitude of birds circling overhead. After crossing Petroleum Creek, you\u2019ll see campsites come into view. Keep going and you\u2019ll stumble upon the Point of Arches, a mile of really cool rocky sea stacks!<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Especially at low tide, you\u2019ll be able to explore the tide pools and view the coastal critters who inhabit the area, so be sure to grab a map and tide chart to plan your timing and route. This is one of the most beautiful and scenic views you may ever experience. Many photographers set up camp on Shi Shi Beach and spend a few days capturing the perfect sunset over the sea stacks at Point of Arches.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Camping is permitted at Shi Shi Beach, but, just as with Second Beach, you are encouraged to practice \u201cLeave No Trace\u201d camping. It\u2019s also essential to have park-approved bear canisters for all your scented and food items. There are a couple of toilets available in the area as well.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wta.org\/go-hiking\/hikes\/cape-alava\">Cape Alava<\/a><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Go ahead and commit to the six-mile round trip forested hike to get to Cape Alava. One of Olympic National Park\u2019s most distinctive beaches, Cape Alava is a rocky beach.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>But attached to the rocky shoreline is a sandy bit of land that connects to the westernmost point of the continental United States: Tskawahyah Island. While Tsanawiyah Island isn\u2019t open to the public, it\u2019s definitely worth seeing from a distance. The views from Cape Alava are incredible and definitely worth a visit.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>For those who are a little more adventurous in their hiking, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/ozette-loop.htm\">Ozette Triangle Loop Trail<\/a> is 9.4 miles long and includes the forest, boardwalks, the beach, as well as Cape Alava. If this seems too daunting for one day, consider camping overnight at the Cape Alava Campground. Be sure to have your permit and bear canisters on-hand.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/olym\/planyourvisit\/visiting-mora-and-rialto.htm\">Rialto Beach<\/a><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>One of the most accessible beaches in Olympic National Park, Rialto Beach is a great stop. With both incredible views and interesting marine wildlife, just because it\u2019s easily accessible doesn\u2019t mean Rialto Beach isn\u2019t just as incredible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Gear up to view bald eagles, brown pelicans, seals, and whales (during particular times of the year) and many more varieties of wildlife. Just as with the other beaches in Olympic National Park, Rialto Beach has no shortage of sea stacks and driftwood logs. One unique feature is that this beach is filled with multicolored stones.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>For the adventurous types, during low tide, you can take a 2-mile beach hike to find a place called Hole-In-The-Wall: some of Washington\u2019s most delightful to photograph sea stacks and tide pools. But you don\u2019t have to venture anywhere to enjoy a beautiful sunset over the Pacific Ocean along this amazing stretch of the wild coast of Washington.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3>Which is better, Rialto Beach or Ruby Beach?<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Both Rialto Beach and Ruby Beach are beautiful destinations on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Rialto Beach is known for its stunning sea stacks and black sand beach, while Ruby Beach is famous for its picturesque driftwood and tide pools.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The better choice between the two depends on your personal preferences. If you prefer a darker, more rugged coastline with unique rock formations, Rialto Beach may be the better option for you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>On the other hand, if you're looking for a serene beach with plenty of opportunities to explore tide pools and admire natural scenery, Ruby Beach might be more up your alley.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3>Which beach has the best sunset in Olympic National Park?<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Ruby Beach is one of the most popular spots in Olympic National Park to watch the sunset. The combination of towering sea stacks, crashing waves, and colorful skies make for a truly breathtaking experience.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3>Why is Ruby Beach famous?<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Ruby Beach is famous for its picturesque scenery, with unique rock formations and driftwood scattered along the shoreline. It's also a popular spot for beachcombing, hiking, and photography.Ruby Beach is located within Olympic National Park in Washington state, which adds to its appeal as a destination for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3>Is Sunset Beach worth visiting?<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Definitely! Sunset Beach is a beautiful destination with stunning views of the ocean and a relaxing atmosphere. Whether you're looking to swim, surf, or simply soak up some sun, this beach has something for everyone.
