Boston Harbor Marina
About
Boston Harbor Marina is a public ocean beach in Washington, about 7 miles from Olympia. It's a simple stop with restrooms on site and no fee to visit. Swimming is not allowed, so plan on enjoying the shoreline from the beach rather than the water. Summer is the driest and warmest time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show July and August highs around 78°F, with only about five wet days in each of those months. For a longer outing, Loop Trail is about 2.6 miles away, and Ellis Cove Trail is about 4.5 miles away. Evergreen Beach Trail and Organic Farm Trail are both within about 6 miles.
