Plenty of people are planning vacations to huge cities, popular beaches, and big-name attractions this summer. Travel + Leisure, however, decided to put the spotlight on a small and quaint town in Washington state: Seabrook.
According to writer Tamara Gane, most residents living in the state don't know about this charming coastal town. She explains why you should Seabrook on your travel radar:
"Perched on a bluff above the ocean, Seabrook is a unique destination on the Washington coast — a quaint community with a town square full of sweet shops, boutiques, and eateries. Despite being founded in 2004, it's decidedly old-fashioned. It's the type of place where you park your car and get around by foot or bicycle, waving to people you pass by. There's a neighborly feel here that can't be replicated in towns where you drive from place to place — a connection to the people and things around you that can only be felt in the open air."
The writer also highlighted some other neat features and activities in the town:
- A two-hour, scenic drive from Seattle
- Comfy cottages for accommodations
- A small town square packed with specialty shops and neighborhood businesses
- Plenty of outdoor activities and areas, including biking, gardens, razor clam digging, and more
- Two hours away from Olympic National Park, less than an hour from Ocean Shores
