This compact state park sits on the Washington coast northwest of Aberdeen. Its campground lies close to the Pacific, and visitors can walk a broad, level sandy beach, fly kites, dig for clams, fish from the surf, or watch birds. The park is one of ten within the Seashore Conservation Area, so coastal safety rules and beach driving limits apply. Wood campfires are not permitted, though portable gas or propane firepits are.
