Small public boat launch on the Hoquiam River estuary with tidal mudflats, pilings and working boats — strong for wide waterscapes, reflections, shorebird activity and moody Pacific Northwest light. Best at sunrise/sunset or in morning fog; tides change foreground texture. Easy roadside parking; carry waterproof boots at low tide; respect working-boat areas and local anglers.
