This picture gives you an example of how peaceful the town of Westport, Washington is as the sun begins to rise to begin another beautiful day. Westport, Washington is situated at the mouth of Grays Harbor on a peninsula known as Point Chehalis.
In the early days before any white settlers arrived in Westport which was around 1857, the Native American people made use of Westport as a summer vacation spot. It was not until around 1914 that the town and marina in Westport started to become a livelier place where fishing and tourism became part of the everyday activities.
