Sequim Bay State Park is a year-round, 92-acre marine camping park with 4,909 feet of saltwater coast in the Sequim rainshadow, just inside Puget Sound on the Olympic Peninsula. The bay is calm, the air is dry and interpretive opportunities await visitors. The name Sequim, which means quiet waters, aptly describes the bay on the shores of which the park rests. Beachcombing is popular.
Nature of the Area
Sequim is in the heart of Washington's rain shadow, a region with markedly less rainfall than that of the surrounding area. Sequim's average annual rainfall is 17 inches.
History of the Area
"Sequim" is a Native American word for "quiet waters." Two natural overlapping sandbars protect the bay waters from the rough waves and currents of the Strait of Juan de Fuca. These same sandbars also protected the area from discovery by the first three expeditions that ventured into the Puget Sound.
Passes
A Discover Pass is required for vehicle access to Washington state parks for day use. For more information about the Discover Pass and exemptions, please visit the Discover Pass web page.
