Lime Kiln Point

Lime Kiln Point Lighthouse is located near the historic lime kilns in Lime Kiln Point State Park on San Juan Island. This state park is one of the few publicly owned water access locations where the public can go to view Orca whales along Haro Strait in north Puget Sound. It is not uncommon for over 100,000 visitors to enjoy this popular day park each year. If you truly love wildlife and wish to see the Orcas for yourself, I encourage you to come to Lime Kiln Point and spend the day hiking, picnicing and waiting for these beautiful mammals to make an appearance. Booking a trip with a whale watching boat service may be a quicker, and more expensive, way to see Orcas, however, in doing so the potential for disturbing and even harming these endangered whales is infinitely higher. This miniature ink and pencil drawing of Lime Kiln Point Lighthouse, in a 5x7 wood frame is available for $35 plus shipping.
