About
Blaine Harbor And Boat Launch is a public ocean beach in Washington, about 0.7 miles from the town of Blaine. It's a simple stop with restrooms and accessible access, and there is no fee to use it. Swimming is not allowed here, so plan on time on the shore rather than in the water. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Blaine show July and August highs around 73°F with only about six wet days a month, while winter months bring highs in the mid-40s and rain on most days.
