About Triton Cove State Park

This Jefferson County park sits on the saltwater edge of Hood Canal and is open for day use only. Visitors can launch boats from an accessible ramp, fish or dig for shellfish along the rocky shoreline, or spread out a lunch at one of a few picnic tables. Facilities are basic, with a vault toilet and a parking lot sized for vehicles pulling boat trailers. A state recreational license is needed for fishing and shellfish harvesting.
