About this map

Westport sits at the northern tip of a peninsula where the Pacific Ocean meets the entrance to Grays Harbor. This coastal landscape is defined by its shifting sands and deep-water channels, including the North Channel and South Channel that bracket Whitcomb Flats. The settlement of Westhaven is centered around Westhaven Cove, a protected harbor area near Point Chehalis, while to the south, the village of Ocosta overlooks the marshy reaches of South Bay.

Dynamic shoreline features like Damon Point and the Sand Island Shoal illustrate the continuous sediment transport at the harbor's mouth. Across the water, the southern edge of Ocean Shores marks the opposite side of the inlet at Lone Tree. Inland, the terrain rises toward Brackenridge Bluff, while various channels like the Humptulips River Channel carve through the northern flats, highlighting the complex estuarine environment of this Pacific Northwest maritime hub.
