Driftwood logs on a sandy beach at Crescent Beach, with beach grass, surf, a forested headland, and distant mountains under a clear blue sky

A photo story

Crescent Beach, Washington

I stood on Crescent Beach in Washington, in March 2023, with driftwood logs scattered across the sand and beach grass growing along the edge. The surf was rolling in, a forested headland ran out to the right, and distant mountains sat across the water under a clear blue sky. It was around 51, with a breeze around 9 miles an hour.

Crescent Beach looks out over the Strait of Juan de Fuca. I took this from the sand, looking along the logs and out toward the headland and the mountains.
