South Beach

Beach in Friday Harbor, WA
This was the best little beach to stumble upon! If you are looking for jaw-dropping views, where your kids will be busy for hours on end, and a place that would be surreal for a quick dip to cool off in the summer, than this is your spot!

We grabbed a couple of seltzers from the local San Juan brewery, packed a picnic, and took the boys for an afternoon at the beach!
