Obstruction Pass State Park

So peaceful and serene. Very powerful spots to observe the islands and relax. Beautiful hike in, but it can be more than expected.

Best tide pool on the island. Learn about how to protect tide pools before exploring it. That would be cool of you.

Secluded, first-come camp sites on the bay. Lovely little pebble beach to swim, kayak and picnic. 0.6 mile hike in or kayak in.

The hike is short and easy to get to the beautiful pebble beach. That means it is also busier than most parks on the Island. Great views! (These have to be the best pit toilets I have ever visited!)

Fantastic spot for short day hike or really short backpacking. The camp spots are accessible after a mild .6 mile hike one way. There are like 11 spots. Only about 3 have decent puget sound views so I would get down there early and set up camp. Most have a table and campfire ring. They don’t allow collection of wood from the forest but you ARE allowed to collect driftwood which we found plenty. Only 3-4 groups down there on a Thursday evening. Since most the area is covered in noisy bushes, you hear every little critter or animal that moves about in the night. Kinda creepy but part of the experience! There is a toilet down near the campsites to use too which is nice but no clean water available even at the parking lot so bring plenty! Highly recommend camping here if you get one of the good spots! We paid 12$ for one night.
