Labor Day: The Only Day Work Takes a Vacation

No work, no problem—just perfect 67-degree weather, glassy tides ideal for exploring, and a golden hour at 6:59 PM that's practically begging you to be outside. Whether you're hiking, paddling, or simply sitting with a view, today's the day to remember why you live (or chose to visit) here. Tomorrow night, stick around for Cat Video Fest at the Orcas Center if you need proof that island culture is delightfully weird.
