Washington state is home to a thriving outdoor ecosystem. Many parks can be found throughout Eastsound, and Sucia Island State Park can only be accessed by boat. This park is 814 acres and offers plenty of space on land for camping and hiking. Because this is one of the smaller of the San Juan Islands, it has remained mostly untouched. In 2012, an 80-million-year-old femur from a meat-eating, 2-legged dinosaur was found. Though this was excavated by paleontologists, there are strict restrictions for fossil collecting. Diving can be done in the clear waters, but a recreational license is required for anyone who wants to fish or harvest shellfish.
