These are the best options to fly into Olympic:
Flying into Olympic National Park gives you several options, as the park’s vast expanse is best accessed through different airports depending on where you plan to start your adventure. Here are the most convenient airports to consider:
Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA)
Known as Sea-Tac, this airport is about 2.5 hours from the Olympic National Park. It’s the largest airport in the vicinity, offering numerous domestic and international flights. You can rent a car here and enjoy a scenic drive to the park.
William R. Fairchild International Airport (CLM)
Located in Port Angeles, this small airport is much closer to the park, just outside the northern boundary. It's an excellent choice if you want to start exploring the Olympic Peninsula right away. However, flights here may be more limited, with most coming from within Washington State.
Bowerman Airport (HQM)
In Hoquiam, near the southwestern corner of the Olympic National Park, Bowerman Airport is a smaller facility and another option, especially for those interested in exploring the Pacific coastline or the Quinault Rainforest. Car rentals are available, allowing easy access to the park.
Tacoma International Airport (TIW)
Although not as commonly used for Olympic National Park due to its similar distance as Sea-Tac but with fewer flight options, it could be a viable alternative for visitors looking for smaller airports or specific flight deals. It's roughly a 2.5- to 3-hour drive to the park.
Each airport offers different advantages based on your itinerary, the segments of the park you wish to explore first, and the flight options from your originating city.
