2014 Map of Grayland

About this map

Pacific Ocean tides meet the coastal communities of Washington’s southern shoreline in this contemporary survey. The landscape is defined by the narrow strip of land between the sea and the winding Elk River, featuring the cranberry-growing hub of Grayland and the quirky Grayland Intergalactic Airport. Settlement patterns follow the coast from Westport and Cohassett Beach in the north down toward the Pacific County line, where the Grayland Beach State Park preserves the natural dunes. Inland, the terrain rises into Seastrand Ridge and is crisscrossed by watercourses like Mallard Slough and Andrews Cr. This era shows a mix of recreation and traditional land use, from the Kenanna Recreational Vehicle Park to the established Roberts Farm, illustrating the region's transition into a destination for coastal tourism while maintaining its agricultural roots.
