Tongue Point, Marine outcrop in Salt Creek Recreation Area, Washington.
Tongue Point extends into the Strait of Juan de Fuca, forming a rocky peninsula with natural pools along its perimeter.
The Lewis and Clark expedition documented this location in 1805, with Meriwether Lewis noting its distinct projection into the shallow bay.
The area serves as a research site for marine biologists studying the diverse coastal ecosystems of the Pacific Northwest.
Visitors can access the point during low tide to observe sea stars, mussels, and various marine species in the natural pools.
The natural arch near Tongue Point creates a passage through the rock formation that becomes accessible during specific tidal conditions.
