About

Spencer Spit is a 200-acre state park in Washington, managed by the state park agency, about 7 miles from Friday Harbor. The park holds two campgrounds, making it a base for overnight stays rather than a single trail destination. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical July and August highs reach about 69°F with lows near 54°F and only about five wet days a month, according to averages from a nearby weather station at Olga. The Cascadia Marine Trail Campsite at Spencer Spit State Park sits just 0.3 miles away. Within a few miles you'll also find the Perimeter Trail, the Fisherman Bay Spit trail and Canoe Island French Camp.
