Current alerts:

Clayton Beach access closed: The access to Clayton Beach is closed until further notice, due to public safety concerns and to stop public trespass on private property. Previous access to the beach via unauthorized use of Burlington Northern Santa Fe property must be discontinued because of inadequate sight lines for pedestrians to see on-coming trains when crossing the rails to access the beach area. State Parks has plans for eventual construction of a rail overpass that will provide safe access to Clayton Beach, and Burlington Northern Santa Fe is in agreement with this plan.

Vanish clam harvesting at Larrabee State Park is closed until further notice.

Park staff has noticed an increase in raccoon activity at Larrabee State Park. For visitor and wildlife safety, please do not feed raccoons. Keep all food secured in vehicles or in plastic containers with latches and do not leave pet food unattended.


Agency information:

Firewood can carry insects and diseases that threaten the health of our western forests. You can make a difference by buying and burning your firewood locally.
