Frequently Asked Questions
In the heart of the waterfront, steps from Water Street. Only small vessels working Puget Sound and the San Juan Islands tie up here, and the main street with its 1880s facades begins at the end of the gangway.
Yes. Water Street, the Uptown district reached by a staircase from the centre, and the bluff overlook are all walkable. Only Fort Worden, a few minutes from town, is better reached by shuttle or taxi.
Water Street with its galleries, bookshops and cafés; the climb to Uptown and its turreted mansions for the bay view; then Fort Worden, its concrete batteries and the Point Wilson lighthouse on its spit of sand.
Because around 1890 it expected to become the great metropolis of the Northwest: colonnaded banks, grand hotels and captains' mansions rose facing the sea. The railway chose another shore of Puget Sound, the town froze in its ambition, and the Victorian ensemble survived intact.
A former artillery fort built at the turn of the twentieth century to seal the entrance to Puget Sound, now a large state park. You can explore concrete batteries, walk to the Point Wilson lighthouse and picnic facing the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The military buildings now house artist residencies and cultural centres.
The upper town, built on the bluff so that respectable wives could avoid the harbour taverns, as the local story goes. Quiet streets line up turreted houses, hollyhock gardens and white timber churches, and black-tailed deer graze placidly on the lawns.
Closely. The town keeps an almost devotional passion for traditional boatbuilding, with yards, a school of wooden boatbuilding and timber sailing vessels in the harbour. The Water Street antique dealers accordingly sell old charts and ship's brass.
The US dollar, and cards work in galleries, cafés and shops. Some cash remains handy for tips and small counters.
June through September, the Puget Sound coastal cruising season. Skies are clearest then, and in fine weather the snow-covered Olympic Mountains appear from the bluff overlook.
Yes. The echoing concrete batteries at Fort Worden delight children, and the Point Wilson lighthouse is an easy walk across the sand. The deer grazing in Uptown always end up amusing them.
