This should be a wonderful, hopefully sunny, hike along the shoreline of Dungeness Spit in the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Low tide is at 11 am Dungeness Spit Tides | May 2026, so we should have plenty of time to view wildlife and explore the area around the lighthouse before returning back to the cars.
8:30 am at the main Refuge parking lot (restrooms available). Refuge parking lot - Google Maps
