The waves weren't as big and dramatic as they could get but it was still very cool to see the ocean rolling so much. Normally we go when it's nice and tranquil but we finally took it in with a storm coming in to boot along with the tides which created a cool but really intense experience. The wind was very strong and it was raining so staying outside for a long time wasn't really an option. Still it was really a fun experience and this sandy beach is normally a great place to go to in the summer!

Be aware please, there are serious undercurrents. I actually got swept up in one there and I am a seriously good swimmer. I had to be rescued. And I truly thought I was gonna die. Here's what the problem was folks: I was not wearing my life jacket what an idiot! There are several fun things you can do at this beach: If you have a volleyball net and Legs nobody is going to stop you from having fun doing volleyball. There's a really great reason for this there is a lot of beach! Truly nobody gets crowded there at least from what I've seen. There's plenty of people on the beach but not 5 feet away from you. I just want to touch back on the nickname Washaway beach: it's a beach that's been washing away and has taken mobile homes stick built homes entire neighborhoods in fact. But there is a structural engineer that was able to put a stop on it. You can look it up just look up structural engineer for Washaway beach. Here's something you may not know I find it delightful though. You can drive on the beach because it's an actual highway! The drivers are extremely careful don't even worry about that but the best part about it is you can park where you want to set up your stuff! Now don't tell your parents this: but it is the best place in the world that I have been to for kite flying! They also have a clamming season and they're delicious.

On the coast with some winding little trails under the trees and through the sand, the day use area and one row of campground sites were open. We decided to take the trails on a short leg-stretcher just to see what Twin Harbors was all about. Up and over the sandy dunes and around muddy patches we weaved for a mile or so, and back through the campground to the van. The beaches were empty, a few campers staying overnight, and a handful of cars coming and going from day use. It felt pretty peaceful at Twin Harbors, we would've happily grabbed a site for a night if we weren't heading home. Probably wouldn't be more to do here for more than one night, but it's a low-key spot for a stopover or picnic.

They'd recently mowed the paths and next to the boardwalk, however a little snake made his way up onto the boardwalk to sun. He stayed put so we could sneak past, but you could tell the growth under the platform was high and pushing up through the boards making it easy for him to come up from below. The rest of the path was uneventful. A lot of robins, but no migration activity or anything of significance to view at this time.

My family loves Westport and highly recommend it for a stay or a day trip if you're in the area!!

"Westport is where I live, and so I'm going to take this opportunity to tell you to COME VISIT!!…read more Westport is the red headed stepchild of Washington Beaches, never promoted as a beach city, it is the last place most people in Seattle think of when they think of the beach. But you will not regret coming here (especially if you were considering going to Ocean Shores!) The 18 miles of sandy beaches that stretch from Westport to Tokeland is otherwise known as the South Beach is everything you would want in a Pacific Northwest Beach. Whether you're looking for a fishing adventure, beautiful beaches, surfing, kite flying, whale watching, crabbing, or just relaxing, the South Beach is the place to be. In the summer, you can beat it to beat the heat. It's not overdeveloped, in fact its quite understated. The marina district has a nice mixture of upscale restaurants (we got our first sushi restaurant, yay!) and hole-in-the-wall diners. Fishing is still a very important part of the community, and if you've ever wanted to try a fishing charter, you can do that from July 1 until the quotas are met for less than a round of drinks in downtown Seattle. Surfing is huge here, at Westhaven State Park and Half Moon Bay. There are 2 surf shops in town (Steepwater Surf Shop, and The Surf Shop) that can outfit you with a wetsuit and a board for under $50. A lesson will cost a little more, but not by much. Bikes and paddleboats are available for rent down on the water. Kites can be purchased for just a few dollars and can keep your kids busy for hours. In the spring and fall, watch the WDFW to see when the beaches are open for clamming. During crab season, you can drop your crab pots right off of the fisherman's boardwalk - no boats required. Starting in September, the salmon that were released by the local high school class start to return to the Marina, and you can fish right off the boardwalk and participate in the Salmon Derby. There is all kinds of old fashioned fun here. It's perfect for a romantic getaway or a family trip. Day trips and overnighters. There is everything from campgrounds to low budget motels, to luxury condos. All only 2 hours from Sea Tac!"

First time visiting this Marina area to do some Dungeness Crabbing! Constantly walked along the…read moredocks, the steel bridges and boardwalks to get to the nice crabbing spots. We brought our cages and nets to do some crabbing for 1 1/2 days. Arrived on Friday, 5/30/25, late afternoon at 2:30 PM. There were way too many people on the boardwalk, so we couldn't get a decent spot. Still did some crabbing by throwing the nets down for a few hours, until 7:30 PM. Got some nice sized keepers.... On Saturday, it was pouring rain until 12:00 PM. But went out from 8:30 AM to 6:00 PM to obtain Dungeness Crab Limits for 4 People! 2 Coolers full of them! It was a great day after the rain stopped and we were able to catch an abundant amount of keepers! Turned out to be a nice day and an enjoyable weekend catching some crabs for the family!!! We will definitely be back another time...

We went to the Marina one year for a pirate festival in which people of course dressed as pirates but a good runner up was mermaid costumes. It was a good time! You can also go on the jetty and get a great view of the Olympic Mountains and see the town of Ocean Shores across the water. Good views from the jetty and it gets even better going to where the fishermen are on the boardwalk. There is also a tower to go up on the west side of the marina for good views as well. When Steve and I were walking along the docks and bridges of the marina we spotted a some aquatic wildlife like harbor seals and jellyfish.

There is NO BEACH access, but it is just a couple miles down the road. Take a left from park drive to Cranberry beach road take you right out to beach. Few potholes but you can drive right onto beach. Follow locals tracks, stay out of soft sand. Afternoons people were there by the hundreds on Friday/Saturday night hunting razor clams. No fenced dog park but lots of walking trails and areas for them. You must pay for WiFi, but it was very reasonable & very worth it. There is no cable which is fine if you get the WiFi. Tengo Internet is the company you will be using. We paid $7.95 for 4 devices for 3 days. If you want to stream (TV) you will be calling Tengo to give them your units "Mac" number. Then everything was great. All sites were grass, a few muddy but ours was great. Small gas station 4 miles away will provide you with many of you needs. 30 amps only, because this an older park. There is no tent camping due to restrooms closed. That said we were told no showers or rest rooms & yet the guy next to me said he gets the code because he is a return renter. The full time RVs are up front providing them the privacy they deserve. Dogs are required to be on leash or penned most people followed the rules. If you had a group coming here would be a great idea, just book a row of sites toward the back. There are some very nice cabins to rent, I assume they get the code to restrooms. We would stay here again

We arrived on a Sunday afternoon at 1:00; office was closed. Office didn't open until 10:00 a.m. on Monday and we were already out and about sightseeing. When we returned in the afternoon the bathrooms had not been serviced for at least 2 days; there was a need for cleaning in the men's, and it was lacking toilet paper. So, park support is lacking at this time of season. The access road passes in front of a few residences. Hard pack dirt and bumpy. The RV park roads are also hard pack dirt and bumpy. Based on our stay in assigned site 53, we are located in a sand pit at the base of our steps. Again, no one on site to discuss changing sites for our 5-night stay. The first section of the RV is used by longggg term campers/residents (as is the case with many RV parks). We did not use the laundry room; appears to be a small room. There is a TV/Lounge shown on the map. It was locked. Looking through the windows, it has not been used for a while. We camped at Kenanna RV Resort by Rjourney in a Fifth Wheel.
