Sequim Webcams

Dear Sequim lovers,
It's winter time in Sequim. And yes, we received our share of snow, 1ft. at times and were busy shoveling our garage drive ways free of the white till the warm Chinook winds took care of it and melted the snow away. For all these people who only visit Sequim in summer but still consider moving to Sequim for good sooner or later, it might be quite interesting to have a look NOW at Sequim and our webcams in Sequim. Sequim webcams show you what Sequim is like during the winter months.

Let's start with our annual Sequim Lavender Festival which is undoubtedly the biggest attraction for Sequim visitors in July. With a short 1 mile drive, Purple Haze Lavender Farm is just around the corner from downtown Sequim. Visit 10 acres of organic lavender fields! The Farm Store is now closed for the season, but the Sequim downtown Purple Haze Lavender Store is open.

In 2007 the Sequim Dungeness Lighthouse celebrated its 150th anniversary. It was a big Sequim town celebration with lots of food and entertainment and facts to hear about the history of the Dungeness Lighthouse. The Dungeness Lighthouse is at the end of the Dungeness Spit, the longest natural spit in the United States. When planning a beach walk (more a hike) to the lighthouse, be aware that it's 5.5 miles one way. So plan a day trip with food, water and lots of sunscreen & a hat.

Sequim Things To Do on Sequim Vacation

Dear Sequim vacation visitors,

Hope you found our recent visit to the Seattle Pike Street Market of interest for your Sequim vacation. Today, we decided to share with you Sequim and Sequim Area Web Cams, which we think is a great tool for getting a first impression about things to do on your Sequim vacation.

Let's start with a glimpse of Sequim town looking East. Must admit there are better views of the town, like Views from Bell Hill over Sequim town, Victoria and the Straits de Juan de Fuca with snow-covered Mt. Baker in the back. So don't let this Sequim town web cam view disappoint you.


We just recently wrote about the Sequim Lavender Festival with a Youtube video and had included a number of Purple Haze Lavender Farm photos on another post as an enticement to visit Sequim when the lavender is blooming. With a short 1 mile drive, Purple Haze Lavender Farm is just around the corner from downtown Sequim. Visit 10 acres of organic lavender fields!

Recently, the Sequim Dungeness Lighthouse celebrated its 150th anniversary. Unfortunately, we nearly forgot to mention it. It was a big Sequim town celebration with lots of food and entertainment and facts to hear about the history of the New Dungeness LighthouseThe Dungeness Lighthouse is at the end of the Dungeness Spit, the longest natural spit in the United States. When planning a beach walk (more a hike) to the lighthouse, be aware that it's 5.5 miles one way. So plan a day trip with food, water and lots of sunscreen & a hat.



We noticed that Port Angeles Harbor is not only visited by huge container ships but it's definitely a tourist meeting spot with lots of Olympic Peninsula events taking place and having food and gift stands all year round. Port Angeles Harbor is the docking point for the ferries to Victoria BC., the Coho and the Victoria Express. Our visit to Victoria and Butchart Gardens last year May (roses in full bloom!) was one of our most impressive weekend trips (3 nights). We plan to go back with our motor-home next time. No visit to Vancouver Island is complete without a visit to The Butchart Gardens.



Hurricane Ridge was our first adventure when we were on our Sequim vacation in September of 2005, before we made the final decision to move to Sequim to retire. Hurricane Ridge is a short drive into the Olympic National Park. We got surprised by the first snow of the season. Coming from Hawaii, we admired the snow flakes falling down. We did not last long though, as we were absolutely not dressed for the elevation of 5,000 ft and the snow! We were not the only visitors one could see that they were tourists. Some people even came in shorts and sandals. So be prepared when you go visit Hurricane Ridge. The weather at that elevation can change fast. Check the weather forecast for Olympics.



One of the nicest day trips when on your Sequim Vacation is a visit to Crescent Lake. Take you time, especially when driving the curvy road along the lake. Don't forget to stop occasionally at the lookout points. It's worthwhile it. You will be rewarded with the most peaceful panorama of the lake and the surrounding areas. You can have a wonderful lunch at Lake Crescent Lodge

and even spend the night at the hotel or the cabins. So far, we each time did a day trip, enjoying our own picnic while sitting on the Crescent Lake beach wooden chairs. Nothing can beat that. If you are not a big hiker, the walk (moderate) to Marymere Waterfalls is warmly recommend




Well, I think that will do with all the vacation recommendations when visiting Sequim. You will find a big guest folder in our Sequim vacation rental with all kinds of information, including Sequim restaurant menus, detailed fishing, hiking and biking maps and tons of Sequim activity flyers. No need to print the information out. First check here what we got for you. Have a wonderful Sequim vacation. Greetings from the Sequimers
p.s.
I guess a picked the last raspberries this week at Graysmarsh U-Pick berries but blueberries and blackberries are still in big demand. The wild blackberries are now everywhere! No need to pay!
