Copalis-Beach located in Grays Harbor County, Washington, has a population of 519 people. Copalis Beach was originally inhabited by the Copalis Indian tribe. When Lewis and Clark first entered the area, they estimated about 200 inhabitants in the Copalis village. The entire beach from Copalis Rock to Damon Point (Ocean Shores) was known as Copalis Beach. Copalis Beach has become famous for the greatest razor clam bed in the world is known as the "Home of the razor clam." Copalis draws more than just clam diggers, the beach is ideal for sun bathing and motorists are allowed to drive their cars for miles along the hard packed sand.

There are low dunes along the beach. Within the park is the Copalis Spit wildlife refuge.

Copalis Beach Weather & Climate

West-Central Washingtion, along the coast, has mild summers and cold, wet winters. Severe storms hit Washington's coast during the winter, bringing heavy rains, strong winds, and high waves. Storms blow in about 70 to 100 inches of rain per year, the heaviest precipitation in the U.S. Coastal storm winds regularly top 40 miles per hour. During the summer, fog often moves in along Washington's coast. As the Pacific High, an area of high pressure, cools off over the Pacific Ocean, low stratus clouds form. At night, these clouds move inland as fog. This fog often burns off by mid-day, giving way to sunshine and pleasant temperatures.
