Boat moorage

Many state parks on Puget Sound have moorage docks, buoys or linear moorage facilities, available for day-use and overnight visits.

Fees, rules and safety

Fees are charged year round for mooring at docks, floats, and buoys from 1 p.m. to 8 a.m.

Find current moorage fees and information about the Annual Moorage Permit.

Be prepared, review park rules and regulations before your go.  Most boaters need a Boater Education Card to operate a vessel in Washington.  Make sure you and your passengers stay safe on the water, review water safety best practices!
