Camano Island State Park sits on the southwest shore of Camano Island, in Island County, Washington, with 6,700 feet of saltwater frontage on Saratoga Passage. The park is reached from I-5 at Stanwood by the Camano Gateway Bridge, about 60 miles north of Seattle.

On a single day in May 1949, more than 900 volunteers from Camano, Stanwood, and the surrounding farm towns built the park from dawn to dusk, clearing trails, raising a kitchen shelter, and grading the picnic ground. The story is one of the founding chapters in Washington's state parks history.

The view across Saratoga Passage looks west to Whidbey Island, about 2 miles across, with the Olympic Mountains rising behind on clear evenings. To the east the Cascade Range and Mount Pilchuck are visible at the right angle. The beach is open to the public at all tides.

Yes. The park has about 84 standard campsites and a small group camp area in old-growth forest above the shoreline. The campground is open through the summer season and into October, with a smaller winter loop. Reservations are made through the Washington State Parks reservation system.

From I-5, take the Stanwood exit (number 212) and follow State Route 532 west across the Camano Gateway Bridge onto the island, then south on East Camano Drive to the park entrance. The drive from Seattle is about 90 minutes in light traffic.

Yes. Washington State Parks requires a Discover Pass, sold annually or as a day pass, for vehicle access to the parking lots. Walk-in and bike access is free. Camping fees are separate and vary by site type and season.

It has been a meaningful gift for many of our customers with ties to the islands. Camano State Park is one of the early stops on most Island County summers, with families coming back generation after generation. A Coaster or Small with a handwritten note from the studio carries well.

Coastal-modern, Pacific Northwest contemporary, and soft maritime. The piece reads as muted blue-greens, driftwood greys, and the white of low tide. It pairs with weathered cedar, linen, and natural rope. Less suited to dark mountain-cabin or bold maximalist palettes.

Yes. Coastal-modern in 2026 leans away from beach kitsch toward muted Salish-Sea palettes and one painted focal piece. A Camano shoreline tile reads as the focal piece, which is why we suggest the Large or a four-tile Mural over a scatter of smaller pieces.

A single Large reads well above an 84-inch sofa. For wider walls, a four-tile Mural builds a roughly 32-by-32-inch field, and a nine-tile Mural reads at couch-length scale. A Medium works above a console; a Small suits a stair landing or a desk shelf.

Yes, with the Dura Satin or Matte finish. The colour lives in the ceramic surface and is unaffected by steam, splashes, or routine moisture. The Glossy finish is reserved for framed wall art rather than wet zones.

A microfibre cloth with water is enough. For stuck-on residue, a drop of dish soap in warm water. Avoid abrasive pads and acidic cleaners. The colour is infused into the ceramic, not painted on top, and will not lift with normal cleaning.

Yes. The piece is original to the studio in Knoxville, Tennessee. Reid Wender curates the WenderVista atlas, and each tile is hand-finished in house. The artwork is not licensed from any third party and is not available outside the Wender Studios family of shops.
