Vashon Island has long been a haven for Washington State's artists. On the first Friday of each month, head to Vashon Town for a guided art walk around the island's art history, galleries, and studios. Learn more about island history in the Vashon-Maury Island Heritage Museum, which explores the island's cultural, agricultural, and arts history. It's open Wednesday to Sunday afternoons for the price of a small voluntary donation. Built in 1914, the Point Robinson Lighthouse is a working lighthouse with hiking trails and a beach around it. And don't miss a selfie with that bike in the tree...
Life on Vashon Island is all about the great outdoors. The best way to explore the island is to rent a bike and hit the winding country lanes and visit the island's many local farms, orchards, and wineries to pick up a picnic. If the sun is shining (and even if not) why not rent a kayak and take to the cool, crystal clear waters of the Puget Sound and see Vashon Island from a different perspective? As the sun sets, head to a quiet beach and watch the sun set over Mount Rainier.
Vashon Island is in the Pacific Northwest, which is famed for making the most of all 4 seasons. The island's rainfall is way above the national average, so packing waterproofs is all but essential. Peak season on the island is during the warm, summer months, between June and August, which sees the most sun and dry days, with temperatures often peaking at 75 degrees. In winter, temperatures drop to close to freezing, but snowfall is rare. Book a Vashon Island vacation rental in the shoulder seasons of spring and fall, and pack a jacket and an umbrella.
Vashon Island lies off the west coast of Seattle and is blessed with views of the Puget Sound. Largely rural, you'll find a tangle of cool hiking trails, many with stunning views of the Cascades Mountains and Mount Rainier on the mainland. Over on the eastern peninsula is Maury Island Marine Park, a shoreline nature reserve which is home to rare Pacific Madrone trees and salt marshes. Spot great blue herons and bald eagles. Fisher Pond is the largest freshwater pond on the island and has become a local haven for fishing and birdwatching.
