  • Explore Olympia Washington with us! This is the capital of the State of Washington, situated on the southernmost point of the Puget Sound. It is the perfect place to visit during the fall travel season.
    Olympia is surrounded by water and known for great seafood, incredible forests, and even...the elusive Bigfoot? We check out the Washington State capitol building in the downtown, grab some Olympia Coffee, and finish it off with a kayak trip in the Puget Sound and a hike in the Pacific Northwest forest.
    This video was sponsored in part by Experience Olympia. Check them out for more information.

    Thank you for making our little town look so charming. 1 small correction, geoduck is pronounced “gooey duck”. It’s an amazing clam that in native to the area and the Pacific Northwest.

    Lived in Olympia in the early 80’s , went to Saints Martin College and since then never stopped visiting the City. One of my best place in US, the only problem I have is the increase of the homeless people, drugs and crime.The town needs to address those issues before it becomes out of control.

      Home prices and rental prices are insanely high here. While the downtown area looks good in this video, it has a very big homeless and drug addict population. Downtown was dying before Corona and it's not going to get much better. Really look at some other vids and do some research before coming out here. Many folks are talking about leaving due to the high housing costs and homeless. The city council is doing all it can to destroy downtown.

      What you don't see in this video are the massive amounts of homeless people. It's gotten really bad here. Lot's of open drug use, needles and poop downtown, plus crime. We had a lot of fires in the homeless camps this summer. Downtown was dying before Corona and it's not getting any better.

    IDK if I've told you this before, but your videos actually inspired me to start visiting cities in California and the Pacific Northwest that aren't typically on the tourist trail, that I've never considered visiting.
    I probably wouldn't do this for other parts of the country, but being just a few hours away by car, I feel I can allow myself to visit these kinds of places. Also, when you're addicted to travel and have been stationary for a while, you start digging around in your own backyard and develop a greater appreciation for what you have under your nose.

    I grew up on the west side of Olympia before Capitol High School existed, as a resident of Conger St.
    We had apple trees, plum trees, cherry trees, nuts, and blackberries on the vine. I don't recognize what has been done in that town.
    My grandfather grew up in Percival Cove and at 10 years old was rowing a boat to Squaxin Island to spend a season with a tribe.
    Trees grew big back then.

    Don't forget all the lovely homelessen campments, boarded up business and graffiti. Also be ready for petty theft and watching drug use in the street. The effort to film this totally feel good video must have been immense as it is hard not to see the garbage dumpo Olympia has become.

    I lived in Olympia for 40 years before finally deciding to leave. It use to be an awesome place to live but now the best and most fun things to do are watching junkies shoot up and staring at all the tents full of drug addicts while the cops do absolutely nothing. The open drug dealing is pretty sweet too! It’s so cool how they made drug dealing and possession “not an arrestable offense”. Is that the same as legal? Oh well it’s working out totally awesome for sure! Last time I was there a few months ago I saw a drugged out fat naked lady walk out of the woods into the street! That was pretty fun. The coolest thing is talking to all my friends and family who are still stuck there talk about having their homes and cars broken into or being harassed by junkies while they are out shopping. That’s pretty fun too! At least if you live there your son will be taught in school that he can “transition” into a girl any time he wants! Ya THAT’S not confusing to him at all! He was just having a blast hearing that! Even though the broad daylight public shootings are up about 100X what they were about 5 years ago, Olympia is so charming once you get past the smell of drug addicts and LIBERALS!
