Fun times and history lessons all come together at this park right on the tip of Marrowstone Island.
Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Fort Flagler State Park adventure.























This park overlooks Port Townsend Bay and Puget Sound and has endless ocean views. What's more, you can also spot the Olympic and Cascade Mountains looming in the distance.
Once you're done drinking in the sights, check out the park's miles of hiking and biking trails. Or, you can choose to either fly a kite or ride a kite (better known as hang gliding) on the breezy shoreline.
Don't miss the area's historic buildings. For a small fee, you can even take tours of the fort's gun emplacements and century-old military hospital.
End your day with a pre-dusk boat ride, and then watch the sunset from the park's boat docks. There are lots of places to lay your head here. You can take advantage of the standard tent sites, primitive sites, or camp out on the Cascadia Marine Trail. RV's are welcome with full-hookups aplenty.
The best time to visit Fort Flagler State Park is during the summer, from late May to early September, when the weather is ideal for camping and outdoor activities. Winter visits offer a serene escape, though some facilities may be limited due to seasonal closures.
