    The Westcott Bay Reserve is a nineteen-acre microcosm of the San Juan ecology: forests, meadows, freshwater wetlands, saltwater wetlands, and rocky outcroppings. The trails throughout the Reserve are interspersed with interpretative displays about nature and a rotating exhibit of over 100 sculptures, creating an outdoor museum for all ages. Sculptures include works in bronze, stone, wood, metal, glass and ceramic by noted artists from the Pacific Northwest.
    The Westcott Bay Sculpture Park on San Juan Island is open all year round from dawn-to-dusk, rain or shine. (We are in the driest area of Western Washington, but if it is raining, please borrow an umbrella at the entrance gatehouse.)
