The jetty at the entrance to the Point Wilson marina was recently replaced and offers some interesting views. The marina was closed for months while the jetty was replaced and any boat that was left in the marina was unable to leave for the duration.

These two were taken at the same time, just with the top one zoomed in on the ridgeline. The mountains are the northeast corner of the Olympic Mountains as seen from the waterfront in Port Townsend.
