Hiking Dungeness Spit, The Longest Sand Spit In America | Washington

When we visited Sequim, WA for our Wing Walking experience, we had no idea that just north of this quaint town in the Olympic Peninsula is the longest natural sand spit in North America, the Dungeness Spit. Stretching almost 7 miles north into the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Dungeness Spit continues to grow in length by about 15ft each year. This place has beautiful views, rich maritime history, plenty of seabirds, and wildlife. And if you’re willing to hike that 10 miles roundtrip, you’ll get to visit the historic New Dungeness Lighthouse. It was a very unique experience.

Will go there for sure. Thanks!

[@LiveThatAdventure]

Awesome! Enjoy it! 😎🤙

Having worked at the end of the Homer Spit, Alaska for 40 years Dungeness Spit has always been on my radar as a place to visit, thanks.

[@LiveThatAdventure]

Thats pretty awesome! Hopefully you get to head out there and check it out! It is such a pretty spot.

Bull kelp is the type with the bulb, or ball on the head of the kelp. Thanks for the video. I volunteer at a lighthouse to the east of this one. I cannot walk far enough to visit this lighthouse. By the way, Juan de Fuca is pronounced: few ka.

[@LiveThatAdventure]

Hey Lorrie! Thank you so much for all of the info! And thank you for the correction! I do my best with pronunciation but every once in a while I slip on one 🤣. Which lighthouse do you volunteer at? Maybe we can swing by the next time we are in the area! Have a great day!

[@WhoaNellieRVAdventures]

We've been to The Dungeness Spit. We really liked it there.

[@LiveThatAdventure]

that's awesome! we loved the lighthouse. one heck of a walk on the beach that's for sure!

[@Faroutamazingadventures]

Mt Reiner is the only outdoor place that I went to while I was at Washington State. I need to go back and check out other spots!

[@LiveThatAdventure]

That is one of the ones we missed. there is so much beauty out there! Our last bunch of videos have been from Washington. Hopefully they can help you plan your next trip! 😎🤙

[@lorriescott8775]

Mt. Rainier is stunning, but go mid-week. It is too crowded on weekends.

[@charliekrogh5742]

The bulb on the kelp is what allows it to float when in the water. SO, when you pop it, you kill it. Not too environmentally friendly.

[@LiveThatAdventure]

This was all washed up and dried up on the beach. I'm pretty sure it was toast.

@@LiveThatAdventure leave it alone. Let it be.
