Community of Port Ludlow

Port Ludlow is a Master Planned Community located just across the Hood Canal Bridge on Washington's spectacular Olympic Peninsula. This is the ideal retirement location loaded with recreational options for every lifestyle. Some of the many activities available in this beautiful community are boating, fishing, kayaking, hiking and golf. Golf is a year-round activity on Port Ludlow's 27-hole championship golf course and boating is supported with a full service Marina. The climate in Port Ludlow is moderate thanks to the influence of the water temperature of Puget Sound and the "rain-shadow effect" of the Olympic Mountains. Port Ludlow averages 200 days of sunshine per year and average summer temperatures are 70 in the daytime and 50 at night. Average rainfall is 22" to 27" per year where Seattle receives 40" or more of rain per year. Winters are seldom below freezing, with only a few light snowfalls each year. Come visit I would love to show you our wonderful community!!
