💡 Tips

Stock up on groceries in Port Angeles or Forks before arriving, as local supermarket options are very limited.
Book fishing charters and lodging well in advance, especially during the peak summer salmon runs.
Cellular service can be very spotty on this part of the Olympic Peninsula; download your maps offline.
Dress in layers; the coastal weather changes rapidly even on bright sunny days.

Sekiu is a premier sport fishing destination located on the northwestern edge of Washington's Olympic Peninsula. Set along the Strait of Juan de Fuca, this village is the heart of the region's salmon and halibut fishing culture. The rugged coastline gives spectacular maritime views framed by the dense rainforests of the Pacific Northwest. The local beaches are wild and pristine. China Beach and Second Beach are favorites for hikers seeking dramatic rock formations and tide pools. Chito Beach has appealing waterfront accommodations and a tranquil atmosphere for nature enthusiasts. The community's identity is deeply tied to the sea, providing an authentic coastal experience. Gastronomy focuses on the fresh catch of the day, with local smoked salmon being a must-try specialty. Visitors arrive via Highway 112, a designated National Scenic Byway that winds beautifully along the shoreline, offering glimpses of bald eagles and marine life.
