Lake Crescent is a stunningly clear, deep lake located in the Olympic National Park in Washington, USA. The lake, known for its striking blue waters, is situated at the foothills of the Olympic Mountains and spans approximately 12 miles in length with depths reaching over 600 feet. Surrounded by lush forests and scenic hiking trails, Lake Crescent is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy activities such as kayaking, fishing, swimming, and hiking. The lake's pristine waters are attributed to the low levels of nitrogen, which limit the growth of algae, making it one of the clearest lakes in the region.
