Hood Canal Scenic Drive

The roadway along the curved shoreline of Hood Canal offers visitors spectacular scenery and the chance to enjoy the beauty of the region without venturing too far from the comfort of your own car.

Spend a relaxing afternoon cruising along U.S. Highway 101. This scenic roadway hugs the edge of the deep water fjord where Orcas occasionally visit and giant octopus sleep deep beneath the surface. In places, the forest grows right to the edge of the shoreline. Nice stops en route include a visit to Hoodsport Winery, Potlatch State Park, or some of the seafood markets and gift shops in Lilliwaup and Hoodsport.

  • Alderbrook Resort in Union

    I love Alderbrook Resort. They have really done a lot of work on the place. They did a massive fireworks show over the 4th of July. I tried to get in but they had sold completely out. Over 1100 people were on the grounds.
