Well, I just have to add my comment on to all of these! This is such a beautiful landscape!! The tones and lighting, and I love the sand “waves” and how they echo the shape of the rocks! So beautiful!!! My husband & I took this route a couple of years ago but it was a bit disappointing. The weather was not pic taking weather although we still had a wonderful time! Such a gorgeous area!! Half the time, though, we couldn’t even see the water, the fog was so bad.
Luca Renoldi replied
Thank you for your lovely comments. We have found foggy weather only on Olympic Park area, around Forks, it was the perfect Twilight weather :)
