My family and I went to Camano Island State Park for an overnight camping trip on Saturday - Sunday. The park is pretty popular. Most of all the campgrounds are in a wooded setting. None of them have direct access to the beach. However the beach is very close and is in walking distance. The camp currently is having a shortage of water. I recommend bringing 5 gallons from home plus some for drinking. The water tastes bad. Expect some noise, think of this park of a place to drink with your pals or a quick trip out of town. If you want the feeling of getting away from it all, go some place else. There is a large field for games and flushing toilet. Also showers are available. At the time I visited a wood bundle was $7 and kindling was $3. Even if at the park entrance the sign says "Park Full" I recommend going and talking to the camp host. She/he may know of a few sites that are leaving that day. Cost of a single site is $22 with one car.
The beach it self is rocky and perfect for a picnic or kite flying and has almost no shade. The water is calm enough to let the little ones slash and play on toys.
