About
Covering over 500 acres, Discovery Park provides visitors with views of the Sound, as well as both the Olympic and Cascade Mountain ranges. While not ideal for sunbathing, the protected tidal beaches are a wonderful rocky area for exploration, and perhaps sighting a sea lion or other interesting wildlife, making this both a fun and educational trip for children and adults. Discovery Park is open every day from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m., and the visitor center is open Tuesdays through Sundays from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. The park is closed on major holidays.
