The sea stacks along the beach were impressive!

The beaches in the Olympic National Park are beautiful!

The tide was rolling in.

Nancy and Steve told me that I should be sure to visit Ruby Beach and Kalaloch in Olympic National Park. Therefore, I made that my first agenda item for my first full day of sightseeing. I was extremely impressed! It was gorgeous and quite unique from other beaches I have visited.

The sea stacks were beautiful.

Very smooth river rock covered several sections of the beach.

The river rock on the beach was very smooth.

Sections of the beach were rugged and there was more river rock that sand in a number of sections of the beach.

Sometime there was a hazy mist that would blow onto the beach from the ocean that created some fun scenes.

The mist drifting in from the ocean made interesting scenes.

The mist was fun!

I especially liked seeing the “sea stacks” made of rugged rock on the edge of the beach. Some of the settings were spectacular.

The surf was powerful.

Spectacular colors along the beach.

As I was heading back to the Jeep, two teenagers were pointing into the water as there was a seal swimming nearby. I wish I had a larger telephoto, but if you use your imagination, there is a seal swimming in the water!

Use your imagination and you can see a seal in the wild swimming along the beach.
