Westport Light State Park safeguards threatened ecosystems and offers expansive trails with free access to Washington’s beautiful coastline for several popular recreational activities. This golf course would permanently alter the entire 562-acre project area landscape––destroying key wetlands, limiting public access, introducing fertilizers and pesticides into the water cycle, and intensifying coastal erosion.

Different ways to love Westport. One reason to speak up.

The proposed Westport Golf Links project is bad for wetlands, water, wildlife, and public access. Your comment can help show what’s at stake—and who already uses and loves this park.

Tell your story. Share your concerns. Ask Washington State Parks to keep Westport wild.

📝 Submit your comments (link in our bio) by October 15th, 5:00 pm!

Repost from Winter Wildlands Alliance
•
This year, a strong El Niño and unusually warm Pacific waters are shaping conditions from the coast to the mountains, influencing where storms travel, where precipitation falls, and ultimately what our mountain snowpack looks like. Looking back at past winters with similar ocean patterns can offer clues about what the winter ahead might bring. From healthy coastal ecosystems to intact mountain forests, nature is some of our most important infrastructure. Together, Surfrider Foundation and Winter Wildlands Alliance are taking a closer look at what this El Niño could mean for our coasts, our mountains, and the winter ahead.
