High Tide at Birch Bay, WA

During our short stay, the tide was low and there was about 1/4 mile of exposed beach.  People were out playing in the sand all over the place.  Many people appeared to be digging for clams.

We took a peaceful walk along the sidewalk, looking for interesting shops or restaurants.  Quite frankly, we didn’t find anything along the main road that we were overly enthused about.  We did, however, find a nice little flea market sort of setup in the park.  It was worth taking an hour to peruse the vendor’s wares.

While we were visiting Birch Bay, I’m just glad we didn’t see anything like the people who recorded this video experienced.

I sure wouldn’t want to be here during a tsunami!  This place would disappear.
