Two of my favorite Fidalgo Island hiking areas, as viewed from North Whidbey at Deception Pass Park: Rosario Head (left) and Lighthouse Point.
Impressive. I watched this paddleboarder first from Reservation Head, and then moving past Lighthouse Point on the way “back” (Bowman Bay, I think, or maybe Rosario). Balance, stamina and a great sense of adventure.

Power boats speed past Fidalgo Island’s Lighthouse Point on the way to Deception Pass.

Hikers, beach walkers, kayakers, power boaters … they dressed in layers (most including face masks) and headed for […]

I saw kayakers, paddleboarders, horseback riders, hikers, boaters and beach walkers. They were young, old … families and friends.
