There are around 100 state parks here in Washington, which should come as no surprise as most of our population is smitten with our state’s rugged natural beauty. And while some of our parks are best seen in the summer, we’ve got plenty of beautiful places you can visit any time of year. And if you happen to be visiting Grayland Beach State Park, we recommend you make a weekend of it to explore every acre.

Grayland Beach State Park is a 581-acre year-round marine camping park that’s located just south of the small town of Grayland.
