A former military base designed to protect the Puget Sound, Fort Worden is a legendary and beloved state park located in the charming town of Fort Townsend.
Spanning two miles of gorgeous saltwater shoreline, the beach offers magnificent views of the San Juan Islands, Olympic Mountains, and the Cascade Mountain Range.
The Fort itself features a campus-like atmosphere with several amazing meeting spaces, delicious dining options, and comfortable accommodations among more than 100 historic structures.
It is a popular place for people to gather to participate in woodworking classes, music events, and art festivals, as well as several outdoor activities like camping, kayaking, biking, hiking, and wildlife viewing.
