Kitsap Memorial State Park RV & Campground Guide

Washington

The Kitsap Memorial State Park sits on the northwest shore of the Kitsap Peninsula. The park looks out over the Hood Canal, a 68-mile saltwater fjord. It's less than 30 miles from Seattle but takes 90 minutes to get there because of the ferry across Puget Sound. An overland route from Tacoma takes less than one hour. Despite its proximity to the rainforests that are on the Olympic Peninsula, Kitsap Memorial State Park only receives about 40 inches of rainfall annually.
