Amazing Things You Should Know About Puget Sound Cruises

By Brenda Watson


If you are looking for a place to cruise around the globe, then the Puget Sound and the Salish Sea are some of the most breathtaking places to do so. You will get to where the Cascade and Olympic Mountains meet the sea and view it from a stunning island. You get to sail on clear, scenic blue waters to towns that are historical on the seaside such as Anacortes. Activities to be done include being part of traditional and smoked salmon eating. You can also take a trip through the San Juan Islands, getting to see wildlife such as eagles, whales, and seals which can be breathtaking. You will also be getting lessons from experts and historians on board who possess plenty of lessons about the influence of the Suquamish tribes and the Norwegians cultures. These, among very many other, other reasons you should visit Puget Sound Cruises.

The ship departs from the scenic Seattle, WA enroute to Puget Sound. In the itinerary, a detour to Anacortes, WA is planned. The place is significantly warmer than in the neighboring areas. Hence it is prudent to make the most of your moments here. Head over to Deception Pass State Park, perhaps the most photographed place in all of Washington state. The park features plenty of picturesque shorelines, abundant wildlife, and serene trails. All this can make for an enriching destination to visit.

Next in line is a sail through the islands of San Juan. The Skagit Bay and the Deception Pass are some of these places you could visit. The waterway here, forms an island system, channels, and inlets that are very detailed. The wildlife that is majestic when paired with the intricacy create a scenario that is nothing short of breathtaking. To preserve these memories, it is recommended that you take photos.

Another place you will enjoy visiting is Friday Harbor, WA. It is on San Juan Island, and it is a beautiful place rich with culture. The San Juan museum is a place to visit while you are there. There, you will learn about the island even as it was many years ago. You can also visit the beautiful beaches, the mountains, and enjoy the valleys. It has a diverse landscape worth exploring.

At Port Angeles, you can enjoy exciting shops, excellent views of the mountains and harbor, restaurants and fresh air. The downtown is very convenient and boasts of outdoor art, flowers and friendly people. If you have your passport ready, you can make your way to Victoria, a nearby Canadian town.

Little Norway also, known as Poulsbo, was where Norwegian fishers and lodgers who moved there in 1892 settled. They made the landscape look similar to their original home. You can access this beautiful place by moving towards Front Street. This incorporates a few specialized shops, several art galleries, and murals of that old world.

Mountains capped by snow, islands full of forest and beauty that is pristine is what you will be surrounded by as you go through Admiralty Bay on your way to Port Townsend. Some of the activities you can do here are to explore the very vibrant downtown and its historic district. You will be able to visit boutiques, museums, and galleries full of art. Fort Worden State Park is also located in this port.

After a fantastic week sailing, you can finally disembark to Seattle. However, this does not mean that the fun is over yet. Enjoy the sights and sounds that the Pacific Northwest has to offer.
