We were out there about 24 hours ago. There are at least a couple of nice low tides this week.
I wanted to come back and add a little more information on the area.
I walked up to the rock from the north and saw some guys wading in shallow water for crabs. They were friendly and having some luck. They were both wearing a crab gauge for measuring.
It was nice to witness this simple version of taking legal crab.
From WDFW:
“Marine Area 2 encompasses the area from Leadbetter Point at the north end of Long Beach north to the Queets River.”
The video below shows a version of this technique filmed at a different location.

Copalis – America’s Only Beach Runway and Airport
By GraysHarborTalk Editor – Douglas Scott
“Nestled on the beach between the Copalis River to the south and the Copalis rocks to the north, the Copalis State Airport boasts not just Washington State’s only known beach airport, but the only beach runway in America. At just 3,500 feet long, this beach runway gives pilots incredible views and a chance to land on the gorgeous Washington Coast.”
