Located just off State Route 104, just north of the Hood Canal Bridge, this sandy shoreline is popular with kayakers, paddle boarders and beach walkers. This park also offers a small wetlands area for excellent local wildlife and birds viewing. Shellfish lovers will enjoy low tide harvesting during clam and oyster season, which make it a popular site for locals. If you are looking for a small get-away, this little secluded park is just your ticket to an outdoor adventure.
This park only has parking. Restrooms and picnic tables are not available.
Learn about seasonal closures and operational changes during the off-season on the Winter Schedule page.
