This is WA’s favorite park for good reason—it has a dramatic bridge , sweepingly gorgeous views , and great hikes accessible to most levels. Start at Rosario Beach and work your way to bridge views .
Reserve a specific campsite to get the best view of the water. Although it gets really cold near the water but the view in the morning is breathtaking.
View the bridge from beach below. Drive over to Rosario Beach to view the wood totem of the Maiden of Deception Pass. Listen to the story on your mobile device by visiting Atlas Obsura
If you're coming south, there is a public restroom just on the other side of the bridge .
Don't forget your earplugs for when the jets fly over the park . Trust me you'll be glad to have them.
Creatures of the Night talk and swearing in the junior rangers
Beautiful views . On a foggy day the bridge and river look like a scene out of a scary movie .
The Maiden of Deception Pass. Listen to her story at Atlas Obscura podcast
We walked the bridge , took the stairs and checked out barnacles on the beach . Wonderful :)
One of my favorite parks
Spitting from the bridge is great fun. Just watch out for blow back!
beautiful views !
Love the view

The tidepools are great! Just make sure you follow the yellow rope path and don't stray more than a foot from it. They are trying to recover this fantastic natural area. - Kathy Fournier
