Ocean Shores is a peninsula stuck out into the Pacific Ocean and acts as one side of the bay entrance to Grays Harbor. On the Eastern edge of the Peninsula you find bay waters that are occasionally by-ways to whales of various kinds (mostly Grays). And if you like to dream of far off places, you can sit and watch ships from around the world navigate the bay toward the port facilities at Aberdeen and Hoquiam.
The Ocean Shores Interpretive Center at the southern tip of the Peninsula provides hours of information and education about everything from birds and mammals to all the assorted sea life in and around the area. That and the History that is so unique to what is now a popular tourist destination that was once a home to cows, loggers, trappers and people subsisting on fishing and clams.
Ocean Shores is home to more than 23 miles of fresh water, navigable, interconnected waterways. Duck Lake is stocked and considered one of the best year round fishing lakes in Western Washington. The lake is power-boat accessible. Non-motorized boats are recommended in the scenic canal system.
