The museum includes a replica longhouse, canoes, basketry and whaling and fishing gear. Many people visit Neah Bay to hike the Cape Trail or camp at Hobuck Beach. While camping tourists spend time surfing and fishing.
Fishing for bottom fish, such as ling cod, kelp greenling, black rockfish, china rockfish, yellow eye and canary rockfish among others. Ling cod is good in spring and summer, while salmon fishing is good during summer runs. However - Neah Bay is mostly known for the best halibut fishing in the lower 48 states. The US halibut season generally lasts a handful of days in May and June, ending when a seasonal quota is attained. |
