Island -
- Discover Vashon Island ....the heart of the sound. Vashon-Maury
Island's patchwork of pastoral and natural settings make it
a refreshing Northwest getaway. Miles of lightly traveled, pine
edged country roads make bicycling and walking popular activities.
There is something special and magical about being on an island,
the pace is slower, the people friendly the attitudes relaxed.
Whether you are petting a Llama, slowing for deer crossing the
road or watching the eagles soar, you are sure to love Vashon.
In the summer you can stop at a U-pick strawberry or raspberry
field, rent a Kayak, or explore our beaches. One of the better
beach walks is at the historic Point Robinson lighthouse, with
views of Mt.Rainier and Seattle. Lisabuela Beach on the westside
is ideal for watching the sunset over the water. KVI Beach is
just plain great for a picnic, a walk with a friend or a nap
in the sun.
