"A logical home base for exploring both
Whidbey and Fidalgo is the
centrally located town of Coupeville."
- The New York Times,
9/21/07 |
Central Whidbey Island lies in
the
Olympic Mountain rainshadow, which means we only get 20 inches of rain
a year, just half
of Seattle's 40 inches. That makes Whidwood a great
base
for outdoor activities, such as
hiking, biking,
whale watching, kayaking,
beachcombing, kite
flying, horseback riding, birdwatching
or
garden touring.
Whidbey
Island is a great destination for people who enjoy gardens. There are a
dozen different nurseries on
the island, many with beautiful display
gardens
to see. And Whidbey Island is the home of the
renowned Meerkerk
Rhododendron
Garden.
Art lovers and
antique
collectors can find a lot of hidden treasure on Whidbey Island. The art
towns of
Coupeville
and Langley are filled with
interesting boutiques and galleries.
Coupeville is the second
oldest town in Washington state and
its
historic waterfront area has many unique shops and restaurants.
And after shopping in
Langley, you can stop at Whidbey Island
Winery and taste some locally
made
wine.
With five state parks,
spectacular
water and mountain views, summer concerts, four farmers markets,
street fairs,
flea markets and fine dining...
you'll never run out of things to do
on
Whidbey
Island.
And one more thing: Whidwood has a big library
of books and magazines. So if it does rain a
bit
while
you're here, you can always just lounge in bed, read by the
fireplace,
soak in the hot
tub, snooze in the
sunroom, or enjoy some wine and
conversation.
