Tall snowcapped mountains, clear blue lakes, wild and scenic rivers, expansive salt water views and a mecca for outdoor recreation…this is Port Angeles and the Olympic Peninsula!  Gateway to the Olympic National Park, Port Angeles is all this and much, much more.  Port Angeles is a great environment for raising a family and a safe and diverse community for retirement.
     Port Angeles is power boating, sailing, fishing, diving, snow and water skiing, hiking…you name it!  We're small enough to give that hometown feeling but large enough to have a variety of cultural and professional opportunities.
     Port Angeles is located in the rain shadow of the Olympic Mountains placing it in the "sunbelt" of Western Washington. The majestic Olympic Mountains bordering on the south, the beautiful Port of Port Angeles on the Strait of Juan De Fuca frames downtown and just a scenic ferry ride across the Strait is the famous City of Victoria on Vancouver Island, British Columbia.
     Those born and raised here in Port Angeles live here because they love it.  Those who visit here find the "Quality of Life" they are seeking and often stay for a lifetime.  But don't take our word for it…we'll show you when you get here!
