We went to Ocean Shores two weekends ago and this is the second beach area that I have been to here in WA. It was a good hour and a half ride from where we live. I researched a little bit about the place and here is a short history about it that I got from Wikipedia.

"The City of Ocean Shores occupies the Point Brown peninsula on the Washington coast. Long before the arrival of European explorers and settlers, the peninsula was used by the various local tribes for trading and other purposes. The Chinook, Chehalis and Quinalt Tribes used the area, as well as others that now make up the Quinalt Indian Nation." 

When we got there it was really packed since the summer weather just kicked off to almost 3 digit. Throngs of people were already at the beach area. The nice thing is that you can drive your vehicle up to the shores. You can see the long stretch of the beach front where vehicles were parked and people were having a picnic even up to the sand dunes.

It was very breezy that day so instead of wading in the water we were just contented of walking far from the waters because it really get so cold. Then we enjoyed watching people on a horse back riding and other were flying their kites. We left the beach early and we then checked out the Pacific Beach before going home.
