Photo Time Lapush

Leaving Grays Harbor



Slate gray day - Destruction Island











"Most spectacular entrance on the entire west coast of the U.S."  James Island to left, then the narrow entrance, the harbor and the town, Second Beach, First Beach and Quillayutte Rocks .  This is the ONLY postcard I bought on the entire trip!

About two miles out

Just about...


IN!!!  South jetty


Just in, looking north to port

Safe & sound

Restaurant - only one in town


Menu with limits

Water was warmer than the ocean with the river flow
