| | | *"Some great food options: The fanciest/best restaurants are Matia and Doe Bay, but we typically get reservations several weeks in advance. Other excellent ones: a) Lascaux has excellent brunch, b) Buck Bay is good for outdoor lunch, fun with kids and pets, best oysters in WA, ceviche and crab. Lascaux and Buck Bay are about a mile from my place. c) Houlme pizza (excellent pizza), d) Sea Bird some of the best pastries I've had, but open only from 9 to ~10am on Saturdays. Their pastries are like art pieces: https://www.seabirdbakeshop.com/ e) Salvadorean popusas at the Saturday farmers market are good and cheap. f) New Leaf good for lunch and dinner, might require reservation. Reservations required but not as hard as Matia/Doe Bay: 1. Mijitas decent Mexican food. 2) Inn and Ship Bay, fancier dinners, nice views. g) King Fish, west side of the island, great food." |

| * Land: | | * "For outdoor activities, there is hiking, sailing, sea/lake kayaking. The ones I haven't tried yet that I'd love to do are: sailing, kayak tour of Sucia (these require reservation, which I'm happy to do). kayaking in Mountain Lake. Also, activities that I have done several times and enjoy doing again, hike to Mt Constitution, Cascade Lake (swim/kayak), Turtle Back Mountain Hike, Obstruction Pass park, etc." |
| ** 🥾 Hikes
| |
| *** Obstruction Pass Park (beautiful beach during high tide). Entrance to park is 30-min walk from our place.
| |
| *** Coho preserve, nice short hike next to creek/cascades. The entrance to park is a 40-min walk from our place, right next to Lascaux Cafe and Buck Bay. Fun to go there before or after eating.
| |
| *** Mountain Lake to top of Mt Constitution. Beautiful lake views and then amazing views of Mt Baker, Lummi Island, and other islands at the top of the mountain. Best on a non-cloudy day.
| |
| *** Walk around Mountain Lake. Fun to see the islands inside the lake. Also would be cool to kayak here. I think they rent kayaks too.
| |
| *** Walk around Cascade Lake. Most popular hike, perhaps.
| |
| *** Turtle Back Mt, has awesome views of multiple islands on the west side. 30-min drive to trailhead.
| |
| ** ⛳️ Mini golf https://www.orcasislandminigolf.com/
| |
| ** 👩🌾 Farmers Market on Sat morning https://orcasislandfarmersmarket.org/
| |
| ** 🚶♀️ Walk around Eastsound
| |
| ** 🪴 Orcas Pottery. Beautiful pottery store https://www.orcasislandpottery.com/
| |
| ** 🚴♀️Bike around West Sound (rent bikes in Eastsound).
| |
| ** 🚘Drive to the top of Mt Constitution

| ** 🏠 Sea kayaking from our beach: we have one 2-person kayak and one 1-person kayak, but they are lake kayaks, so not super stable if it's wavey, safest to stay near shore.
| |
| ** ⛵️Sailing tour:
| |
| *** Deer Harbor Sailing is out of commission waiting for a part for their boat https://deerharborcharters.com/pages/day-sailing
| |
| *** Left a voice message on Orcas Sailing asking for Sunday morning https://www.orcassailing.com/
| |
| ** 🛶 Sucia Island kayak tour https://www.outerislandx.com/kayaking
| |
| ** 🚣♀️ Kayaking in Mountain Lake to check out inside islands. I believe they rent kayaks at Cascade Lake and take them over there.
