Birch Bay is a sleepy, quietly beautiful Pacific Northwestern hamlet located on the Strait of Georgia, about five miles south of the Canadian border. Along with the neighboring town of Blaine, Birch Bay has spent the past century as a fishing town first and a tourist destination second. Recently, however, visitors have been coming to Birch Bay with increasing frequency because of the natural attractions it offers.  This area is part of Puget Sound and has the warmest Pacific waters north of California, which make its bays and inlets an ideal environment for thousands of species of plant and animal life to thrive. During the daytime, temperatures in Birch Bay range from the mid-70s in the summer to the 30s and 40s in the winter. Nighttime on Puget Sound at any time of year will range from chilly to freezing.
