Tucked between the rugged North Cascades and the sparkling Salish Sea, Bellingham, Washington is a must-visit Pacific Northwest destination that offers a stunning mix of mountains, forests, and coastal beauty. Just 90 miles north of Seattle and 20 miles south of the Canadian border, Bellingham is ideally located in Whatcom County with easy access to the San Juan Islands, Mount Baker, and the scenic Chuckanut Mountains. Outdoor enthusiasts will find a paradise of glacial lakes, temperate rainforests, dramatic coastal bluffs, and endless hiking and biking trails. Overlooking Bellingham Bay with views of the San Juan Islands and Olympic Mountains, the city blends natural splendor with deep cultural roots. Originally home to the Coast Salish peoples, including the Lummi and Nooksack tribes, Bellingham’s history spans coal mining, timber, and maritime trade. The city was officially formed in 1903 when the towns of Whatcom, Sehome, Bellingham, and Fairhaven merged. Today, historic Fairhaven, with its red-brick architecture, lively waterfront, and artsy vibe, anchors a city that’s grown into a vibrant college town and cultural hub.
