About
Berg Drive Road End Boat Launch is a public ocean beach in Washington, about 1.5 miles from the town of Wollochet. It's a simple put-in spot with parking, and a fee is charged. Swimming is not allowed here, so plan on time on the water rather than in it. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show July and August highs around 76°F with only four to five wet days a month, while winter months bring highs in the mid-40s and rain on 21 days a month. Several trails lie within a few miles. Hidden Beach Trail is about 2.3 miles away, and Adam Tallman Nature Park Trail is about 3.6 miles away. Climbers can head to Point Defiance Park, roughly 4.8 miles off, or to Wilson Way Bridge Boulder, about the same distance.
