Tolmie State Park, State park in Thurston County, United States
This 154-acre park includes 1,800 feet of saltwater shoreline on Puget Sound, forests, hiking trails, and a saltwater marsh northeast of Olympia.
The state acquired the land in 1962 and named it after William Fraser Tolmie, a Hudson's Bay Company officer who served at Fort Nisqually.
Educational displays throughout the park inform visitors about the regional flora, fauna, and the evolution of the shoreline's natural environment.
Two kitchen shelters with electricity, sinks, and grills accommodate up to 50 visitors each, while 31 picnic tables provide additional dining spaces.
An artificial reef beneath the waters serves as an underwater park, creating specific zones for scuba diving and marine life observation.
