James Island Marine State Park

Blakely Island, Washington

Welcome to James Island Marine State Park located on the Rosario Strait on the Washington coast. Much of the park is publicy inaccessible due to being a dense forest preserve. The park and island are named for Reuben James who helped save the life of Stephen Decatur for whom there are a few cities around the nation named. In 1875 the Federal Government made plans to construct a lighthouse on the island but it was never built. Nearly a century later the land was transferred to the State of Washington and James Island Marine State Park was established.
