Kalaloch Campground reservations
Olympic National Park coast, near Forks, WA
Kalaloch is Olympic National Park's oceanside campground: 170 sites on a bluff above the Pacific, some overlooking the water. Reservations are required May 15 to September 20 (2026), released in three blocks by loop: 6 months, 2 weeks and 4 days ahead. The rest of the year it's first come, first served.
Kalaloch is a national park campground on Recreation.gov, so Washington State Parks' 9-month rule doesn't apply. Season: May 15, 2026 to September 20, 2026 (reservation season).
