Slip Point Light
Strait of Juan de Fuca · Washington
Slip Point Light stands on the rugged shore of Clallam Bay, Washington, where the Strait of Juan de Fuca meets the open Pacific. Built in 1905, this modest lighthouse guided mariners through treacherous coastal waters for decades before being decommissioned. The tower is no longer active and is not open to the public, so visitors cannot climb it. Still, the site rewards photographers — golden hour and moody overcast days capture the weathered structure against dramatic sea cliffs beautifully. Late spring through early fall offers the most accessible conditions. Nearby, explore the tidal pools along the Clallam Bay shoreline, the trails of Sekiu and the wild beaches of the Olympic Peninsula’s north coast.
