The Seattle Traveler

Photo Op: Ocean Shores

by Mary Jo on January 7th, 2007

Details:  Ocean Shores is both the name of the city, and what you’ll see when you get there!

Located about two and a half hours from Seattle, about halfway to Portland, Oregon, is the state’s most visited seaside destination.  The thirty miles of beach offers six miles of sandy public beach access, and is a popular year round destination.

Although very popular in the summertime, winter is my favorite time to visit Ocean Shores.  I love to sit in a comfy chair, look out at the water, and watch as a storm sweeps in.
