4658 State Route 109
Moclips, WA 98562
We are a small but very popular museum focusing on the history of the North Beach coast of Grays Harbor County. We have displays on the Northern Pacific Railway, logging, Quinault Indian Nation and displays on all North Beach locations: Taholah, Moclips, Pacific Beach, Copalis Beach, Ocean City, Ocean Shores, Aloha, Carlisle, Copalis Crossing and Newton. The massive Moclips Beach Hotel with 325 rooms (the biggest hotel on the entire west coast) was destroyed by three storms in the early 1910's. The John Wayne movie, "McQ" was filmed at Moclips and Pacific Beach in 1973. Singer Pat Boone hosted the annual golf classic in Ocean Shores from 1966 to 1969. Our museum has been officially acknowledged as being haunted; not once but twice. We are, "The Little Museum that Could".

If you blink you might miss this little wonder, on the 109 to Moclips. The outside is typical beach kitsch, hanging buoys and other sea rubble, but inside is a cornucopia of treasures from the...

The Museum of North Beach is unlike any other museum. It is a small cottage converted into a museum along US 109. Volunteers take care of the place so donations are encouraged. You will find a...
