Also ignore the people saying Forks isn’t worth it. Our town can be boring - don’t get me wrong. But south of us we have some of the best beaches. Ruby, La Push is out by the reservation and access to the Hoh Rainforest. We also have smaller beaches like Beach 1, 2 and 3 which are great. Tree of Life, Rialto beach and the Hall of Moss are also worth a visit. On the way to Forks from PA you’ll also have a beautiful drive and go by Lake Sutherland and Lake Crescent as well.

A family traveling through in a full size bus was wrongly labeled antifa by a gun shop owner in Sequim (who had caused problems before). He called some of his “patriot” friends to come forward and “defend what’s theirs” on Facebook/through calling. So when the poor family got to Forks, they were chased, harassed and threatened by racist idiots. Teens stepped in to help them get away. It was a big deal (rightfully so) and we have all been labeled as racists/sun downers since. Not to say there isn’t any racists in town, but a vast majority of us aren’t, and were very upset when that happened.

We get black bear right outside of town in Forks and sometimes they come into town. It’s rare. We also get Moose and a LOT of deer and Elk. There’s a herd of Elk who come into our neighborhood and eat, there’s probably 30-40 of them. We also get seals, beavers and killer and humpback whales. We just had one wash up on shore at Ruby beach last month.
