Ocean Shores is a magical destination any time of year, but there’s something extra special about the off-season. When winter arrives in Washington state, our coastal town transforms into a peaceful retreat filled with cozy charm and scenic beauty. Planning a getaway to Oyhut Bay Seaside Resort means you can experience the quieter side of the coast while still enjoying the activities and comforts that make for an unforgettable getaway.
A Coastal Winter Wonderland
Oyhut Bay’s close location to downtown Ocean Shores makes it an ideal destination for travelers seeking both adventure and relaxation. The wide beaches take on a tranquil atmosphere in winter. Bundle up and go for long walks on the beach to see waves crash along the shore. Nearby Oyhut Wildlife Recreation Area is a peaceful area to explore nature and try to spot migratory birds without the summer crowds.
Endless Adventure
Because winter in Ocean Shores means mild conditions, with daily highs sitting in the 40s, you can still enjoy the endless outdoor fun this area is known for.
- Wait for low tide and go beachcombing near the North Jetty or Ocean City State Park to see what treasures you can find.
- Explore local hiking trails, like the Weatherwax Trail or Perkins Pond Nature Trail.
- Warm up with some friendly, indoor competition at Pacific Paradise, Playtime Family Fun, or Shores Bowl.
- Go digging for razor clams on Mocrocks Beach between the Copalis River and the south boundary of the Quinault Indian Reservation, or on Copalis Beach from the north jetty at the opening of Grays Harbor to Copalis River.
- Watch a winter storm from Griffith-Priday State Park; be sure to follow all safety precautions when taking part in this Pacific Northwest pastime.
