Salt Creek Recreation Area

Salt Creek Recreation Area extends across coastal cliffs and beaches, featuring tide pools, underwater kelp forests, and multiple hiking trails through diverse ecosystems.

The recreation area contains World War II military bunkers that were constructed to protect the Strait of Juan de Fuca during wartime operations.

Indigenous tribes of the Olympic Peninsula utilized this coastal area for gathering marine resources and maintaining connections to their ancestral territories.

Visitors can reserve camping spots through the county website, with four water entry points available for diving and multiple facilities for outdoor activities.

The underwater park within Salt Creek Recreation Area contains sea urchins, anemones, and wolf eels, making it Washington's primary shore diving location.
