Westport Light State Park, along with the Westport Jetty, stands as one of Washington State Parks' premier natural assets and the state's leading beach access point for surfing. The Westport Jetty attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors annually, offering a world-class destination for surfing, clam-digging, birdwatching, kiteboarding, fishing, rock hounding, and relaxing. The beaches and jetty area are particularly popular with surfers from across the Pacific Northwest, providing consistent, high-quality waves that are both accessible and challenging for all skill levels. The proposed Westport Golf Links (WGL) project, could change that. The developers are advocating for a public-private partnership to construct a Scottish links-style golf course on approximately 562 acres of Westport Light State Park lands, primarily situated across the dune landscape near the ocean. We have a lot of concerns regarding the effects on water quality and availability, impacts to wetlands and public beach access, future impacts of sea level rise, and whether the community will be on the hook to pay for those impacts.
