Aberdeen Travel Guide
MapWelcome to Aberdeen!
Historically a logging and fishing town, Aberdeen has shifted its focus to become one of the largest retail centers on the Washington coast. Located at the southern end of the Olympic Peninsula, Aberdeen also offers a number of accommodations that facilitate shopping and the enjoyment of other local activities. Visitors to this part of the state enjoy kayaking, wildlife viewing and exploring the forests located on the Olympic Peninsula. There are roughly 250 acres (101 ha) of park space in Aberdeen, of which 150 acres (61 ha) have been developed for public use, including picnic areas, sports fields and more. The nearby town of Hoquiam hosts the annual Grays Harbor Shorebird Festival, which celebrates the migration of thousands of shorebirds and offers lectures, exhibits and a banquet. For plays, musicals and fine arts activities, visit the city's Driftwood Theatre, a community theater that provides events year-round.
