Washington State?s northern Olympic Coast is home to Shi Shi Beach and Point of Arches. The 8-mile round-way journey to Point of Arches is appropriate for a day hike or a low-intensity backpacking excursion.

 

Considered one of the most beautiful beaches on the Washington Coast this stretch of sand features tide pools sea stacks and headlands all abutted by a coastal forest.

 

Shi Shi Beach (pronounced shy shy) is an 8.8-mile round trip out-and-back hike on the northern Olympic Coast. Walk among tide pools down to Point of Arches an outcrop of more than 30 sea stacks.

 

Backpacking on Shi Shi Beach on Washington?s northwestern coastline offers a unique experience in the Pacific Northwest. Known for its striking sea stacks dense tide pools and remote wild beauty Shi Shi Beach is part of Olympic National Park?s coastal wilderness.

 

The Shi Shi Beach Trail begins with a flat forested hike through towering Sitka spruce but the middle is a long slog through unavoidable deep mud. The trail ends abruptly with a steep descent down a bluff (ropes are often present as handrails) onto the majestic beach.

 

Abbiamo trascorso la giornata facendo escursioni dentro e fuori di Shi Shi Beach - il motivo di essere in giungendo fino a Neah Bay per vedere cosa questa spiaggia era circa.
