The maritime theme continues with Westport's attractions. At the small aquarium near the dock area, you can discover many of the species that inhabit the waters around the town. Afterwards, visit the Grays Harbor Lighthouse which has been keeping ships safe for decades, as well as the Maritime Museum which houses a beautiful old lighthouse lens and ocean-faring artifacts. Just upstream of the Elk River Bridge, you can visit what's left of an old whaling station and if it's low tide, you can see the vast oyster beds nearby.
When you stay in a Westport vacation rental, you've got the whole ocean, bay and shoreline to discover. Visit at the right time, and you can head out on daily charters to see magnificent fluking whales or cast your line into the ocean or rivers to catch trout and sturgeon. If you're PADI certified, you can don your flippers and mask to explore the rich marine life. If not, take the kids down for a fun day on the beach digging for razor clams and crabs and take them back to cook up a fishy feast.
Summer marks the high season for Westport vacation rentals, so if you want to bask in the glorious North Pacific sunshine, you better book yours up quickly. Don't let that stop you visited during the other seasons, all of which have something unique to offer. The spring climate can be fickle, but is typically warm and sunny, and when the crowds disperse in fall, Westport and the surrounding countryside can be wonderfully peaceful. The winters in this part of the country are cold with flurries of snow, but there is a plethora of cozy restaurants to while away the evenings in.
Just a few miles from your Westport vacation rental, around South Bay, lies the Johns River Wildlife Area, a 6,700-acre estuary and wetland park which provides a habitat for a long list of wildlife species. A hike through the park will almost always reveal herds of Roosevelt elk, black-tailed deer and plenty of avifauna. If you're lucky, you may even spot a solitary black bear or an elusive coyote or bobcat. At dusk, hawks can be spotted circling above the open grasslands, and minks often sneak along the river banks in search of prey.
Fly into Hoquiam, WA (HQM-Bowerman), the closest airport, located 9.9 mi (15.9 km) from the city center.
