点评:Olympic NP has several great beaches and trails. However, for our group, the premier one to visit is Rialto Beach and the hike to the Hole in the Wall. For me, Rialto is the stereotypical beach of the NW Pacific in the US. It is a rock and pebble beach with forest and driftwood and large rock formations protruding from the ocean that fluctuates with the tides. It is both cold but inviting with a sense of exploration as each step exposes something more unique. There is also a lot of wildlife here, birds of all types and the most amazing experience with a seal swimming just offshore in the surf.
Unfortunately for us the surf was rising around the hole, so we did not make it through this unique sea coastal feature. Still, we were able to get great pictures of it as well as the two haystacks. I wish we would have had more time and better tidal conditions to explore the rocky seafloor. However, what we were able to see was amazing and made this highlight of our coastal visit to Olympic NP. If you are planning to visited, the shoreline of Olympic, make this the place you visit, incredible experience.
翻译:奥林匹克国家公园拥有数个美丽的海滩和小径。然而,对于我们的团队来说,第一个参观的是里亚托海滩和徒步前往墙洞。对我来说,里亚托是美国西北太平洋典型的海滩。这是一个岩石和卵石海滩,有森林和浮木,以及从海洋中突出的大型岩层,随潮汐波动。它既寒冷又诱人,充满探索感,因为每一步都会暴露出更独特的东西。这里还有很多野生动物、各种鸟类,最令人惊叹的体验是海豹在近海冲浪。
对我们来说不幸的是,洞周围的海浪正在上涨,所以我们没有穿过这个独特的海岸特征。尽管如此,我们还是拍到了它以及两个干草堆的精彩照片。我希望我们有更多的时间和更好的潮汐条件来探索岩石海底。然而,我们所看到的却是令人惊叹的,这成为了我们沿海参观奥林匹克国家公园的亮点。如果您计划参观奥林匹克海岸线,请将此作为您参观的地方,这是令人难以置信的体验。
