San Juan Cruise – Fossil Bay

in boat san juan on May 23, 2017 May 23, 2017

My favorite part about Sucia Island is the hike around Fossil Bay. Mostly because I can look for rocks on the beach, and then look for fossils in the rocks, and then look for treasures washed up on the beach. (one year I found a pocket knife!)

Sunset in Fossil Bay from last night

Survey marker from sometime in the 1800s. I forget the exact date.

A rather nondescript bay across from fossil bay with a few boats anchored in it.

Into the sun.

This entire cliff face is full of fossilized shells

Fossil shells!

Big rocks and small rocks

Driftwood washed up at high tide

Lovely coast line here

Look at all the boats!?!?!?

Gnarled tree. This will be in the water soon.
