Whidbey Island is an island located off the north-western shore of the state of Washington in the USA. This town with a population of approximately 58,200 inhabitants is one of the nine islands of Island County.
During the Ice Age, this area was covered with ice sheets, and the effects are still embedded into the region’s topography. Clay, stones and other rouble brought in by the glaciers is still preserved in the surrounds.
Initially, the region was inhabited by Native American tribes, but later, the Europeans started exploring the area. In the middle of the nineteenth century the first farm was set up here. Today, the nature parks and unique flora and fauna have made it popular with visitors.
The Olympic Mountain Range blocks the rain-bearing clouds, and thus, this region does not get much rainfall. The region has a temperate climate—the average temperature during summer is 19°C and during winter is 7°C.
