Lime Kiln State Park

Lime Kiln Lighthouse

Located on the west side of San Juan Island is Lime Kiln State Park.  Besides its lighthouse, the park is worth visiting for its walking paths and the beautiful view across Haro Strait to Vancouver Island.

  

The path leading from the parking lot down to the water.

Scattered along the shoreline are picnic tables.

No beaches here.  You can imagine what winter storms must be like.

The walk down to the shoreline and eventually back up to the car is very gradual.  The peacefulness of sitting at a picnic table and looking out over Haro Strait is not to be missed.
