Tour

Whidbey Island is one of the jewels of the Pacific Northwest, offering an unparalleled experience of the powerful natural beauty of islands, mountains and ocean. Narrow country roads winding through farmland allow for a relaxing drive and welcome respite from the freeways of the mainland.  Small towns and villages offer pleasant shops, casual browsing and good food.  State parks provide easy access to outdoor activities and scenic views of Puget Sound.

Pamper yourself at one of Whidbey Island's luxurious bed & breakfasts.  In addition to offering a laid-back atmosphere and romantic get-away, Whidbey Island also is in the "rain shadow" of the Olympic Mountains and receives half the annual rainfall of Seattle.mountains.
