Boat launch dock will remain open

OLYMPIA – Sept.14, 2021 – The Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission will permanently close the moorage dock at Sequim Bay State Park on Sept. 15. The closure comes as a result of safety concerns related to the age and structural deterioration of the moorage dock. 

The boat launch dock will remain open for use. There is a 15-minute time limit and the dock may not be used for moorage. The park offers six moorage buoys on a first come, first served basis. Moorage permits are available for purchase online.
