Things to do in Port Townsend, Washington (WA): The Best Gift & Specialty Shops
Surrounded on almost all sides by water, Port Townsend offers many places to launch your vessel of choice, from rowing scull to yacht. Frequent races, regattas and the annual Wooden Boat Festival testify to the relationship between land and sea. For the land lubbers, there are also numerous parks surrounding the city, including Fort Worden and Old Fort Townsend State Parks and, further away, Olympic National Forest. An artists' haven, the town is home to many galleries and a vibrant Art Walk.

Port Townsend is a quaint little town easily reachable by ferry from Coupeville. It has a number of interesting shops, but one outstanding place is the Lively Olive. The flavored olive oils and balsamic vinegars are amazing. Whether you are taking your ordinary salad into an extraordinary experience or just putting some olive oil out for your guests to dip their bread, this place opens up your mind (and your taste buds) to all kinds of tastes that are just not available in your local grocery store. It's fun to take your guests on a field trip to find their favorites and then bring them home for a simple meal of sourdough bread for dipping, salad, and soup. What a way to warm up from this cold weather!

We were looking for a particular handcream, and left a message on the shop phone. We received a call back and unfortunately they didn’t have the large size we were hoping for. I was very impressed they would call us back and give us the information during a busy season. She took time with me. Remember that the good shops in a small town are worthy of our support! ***I will definitely shop there when I go next week.***

One of the oldest, and I like to think finest retail wine/bottle shops in Washington State. We’re proud of our amazing selection, and special ordering services. Fair and competitive prices, friendly, knowledgeable staff, OPEN YEAR ‘ ROUND, 7 DAYS/WEEK. Tastings 1st & 3rd Friday’s, October thru June. Later hours than many other local shops. Wines, Beer, Bubblies/Champagne, Ciders, Cheese and deli items/picnic foods. Chocolates and more. All price ranges from 2 for $10 to rarities such as Leonetti, Quilceda Creek, Woodward Canyon, and some amazing Bordeaux, Spanish, Aussie, New Zealand...but lots of regional PNW from Washington/Oregon. NOT THE “Same old/Same Old”...Stop in and browse, mix any 6 or more and get a discount! 10%-5% OFF Pick up a box and fill it up, or get/pre-order whole cases and the discount is even more!
