Head off of the road here to find Smallpox Bay. Smallpox Bay earned its name as it became a poignant site where victims of the 1862 Pacific Northwest smallpox epidemic, predominantly indigenous people, succumbed. U.S. officers, responsible for handling the aftermath, solemnly conducted the burning of the deceased victims' remains in this somber location. The views here are fantastic and worth a stop.

Lime Kiln State Park is renouned as one of the world's best whale-watching shore areas and is the inspiration for The Whale Trail. Three pods of southern resident orcas, which are named the J pod, K pod, and L pod, come by every year. The best time to spot them is from May to September, and they often come very close to shore.
