Pacific Beach State Park

At just ten acres, Pacific Beach State Park is as big as some people’s yards. But you know what that means? Those ten acres must be damn special to be designated as a state park. And they are. The sandy beaches here are among the best in the state. It’s a perfect place to do all the stereotypical beach activities like flying kites, building sand castles and combing the beach for shells and other washed up wonders. Located along the coast just southwest of Olympic National Park, the views that will greet you upon a visit to Pacific Beach alone will make the trip worth it. Camping is available year round, but it’s also just a nice place to picnic for the day. A day might be all you need to see the whole of this state park, but we won’t blame you for wanting to stay longer.
