Potlatch State Park sits on the banks of the Hood Canal where the Skokomish Indian Tribe historically set their winter villages. Today, nearly 10,000 feet of shoreline and abundant wildlife make Potlatch State Park a great recreation destination. Activities include hiking, camping, fishing, shellfishing, birdwatching and sea kayaking. The amphitheater hosts summer interpretive shows, and an active Junior Ranger program helps kids learn about nature and history of the surrounding area. The park is also known among scuba divers for its easy access and gentle descent to view Hood Canal marine life.

Just 3 miles south of Hoodsport on US Highway 101, the park is open year-round for camping and day use. A number of small restaurants and shops are nearby.
