Admiralty Head Lighthouse-Whidbey Island, WA

Our trip to Whidbey Island was to include Bush Point "Lighthouse" and Admiralty Head lighthouse. We first stopped at Bush Point (see it here) and then we headed north to Fort Casey for Admiralty Head lighthouse. We were not disappointed! Not only is this lighthouse in superb condition, we got to go into the lantern area (free)! Of course, the gift shop drew us in and we came home with a poster of coastal lighthouses for the dining room. I found numbered map pins which will be so fun to document our lighthouse journeys!

We stayed the afternoon at Fort Casey and walked the entire bluff and explored what seemed like ALL of the bunkers. We watched the Port Townsend ferry boat shuttle back and forth across the sound as we hopped on the guns and ladders.  I would have to say the bathroom near the bunkers was really impressive! Brand new and really clean, don't we love that, girls? A gorgeous cool, sunny day. Just perfect for our outing. We ended our day with a walk on the beach at Ebey Landing.

TRAVEL TIP: Fort Casey was an all day adventure along with Ebey Landing. I thought we were only visiting a lighthouse, but it turned out to be much, much more. Plan on it!
