It was somewhere that had been on my bucket list for this year since I discovered it. I am glad I saved it to share with one of my visiting friends. The hike itself is downhill on the way there, and eventually it takes you to a couple different viewing platforms. The last one on the edge of the cliff looks out at Tatoosh Island.<\/p>\n<p>I find the landscape fascinating with the rock formations in the ocean topped with trees like wigs. It&#8217;s more beautiful than I can describe in words, so a photo essay is most appropriate here.<\/p>\n<p>On the way back, we enjoyed watching the Seattle skyline from the Bainbridge Island ferry.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" src=\"http:\/\/nextstopadventure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/2018-12-16_0090.jpg\" alt=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" src=\"http:\/\/nextstopadventure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/2018-12-16_0091.jpg\" alt=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" src=\"http:\/\/nextstopadventure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/2018-12-16_0093.jpg\" alt=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" src=\"http:\/\/nextstopadventure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/2018-12-16_0092.jpg\" alt=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" src=\"http:\/\/nextstopadventure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/2018-12-16_0096.jpg\" alt=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" src=\"http:\/\/nextstopadventure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/2018-12-16_0095.jpg\" alt=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" src=\"http:\/\/nextstopadventure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/2018-12-16_0097.jpg\" alt=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" src=\"http:\/\/nextstopadventure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/2018-12-16_0094.jpg\" alt=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" src=\"http:\/\/nextstopadventure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/2018-12-16_0098.jpg\" alt=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" src=\"http:\/\/nextstopadventure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/2018-12-16_0099.jpg\" alt=\"cape flattery, neah bay, olympic national park, olympic peninsula, tatoosh island, northwest, pacific northwest, hiking, 52 hike challenge\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Driving Directions<\/h3>\n<p>From Port Angeles, drive Highway 101 west for 5 miles.
