- 🌊 Doe Bay: expensive, excellent PNW food, cozy location. Reservation is required, but a pain to get through them during tourist season. https://doebay.com/cafe/

Activites
Ideas
- Land:
- 🥾 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
- 🥾 Hikes
- Water
- 🏠 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
- 🛶 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.
