GOING WITH THE FLOW photography by James Harnois AS THE TIDES go in and out, sea life constantly adapts. Visit Rialto Beach or Second Beach on the Olympic Peninsula while the tide is out, and you’ll find seawater trapped in tide pools. Prepare for the greatest reward—these pools are teeming with life, from anemones to starfish to colorful algae.
Hole-in-the-Wall is a short hike north from Rialto Beach. FAR RIGHT, FROM TOP A giant green anemone is visible during low tide near Hole-in-the-Wall. A man hikes out on the rocks during low tide at Rialto Beach.
