John Wayne Marina Central Parking

A Working Recreational Harbor on Sequim Bay

John Wayne Marina sits on the calm waters of Sequim Bay, on the northern edge of Washington's Olympic Peninsula. The marina serves both resident boaters and visiting cruisers, and this view of its central parking area captures the everyday rhythm of a working waterfront — trailers, delivery trucks, and visitors arriving to launch, moor, or simply enjoy the shoreline.

Gateway to the Strait of Juan de Fuca

Sequim Bay is a protected inlet that opens onto the broad Strait of Juan de Fuca, the maritime corridor separating the Olympic Peninsula from Vancouver Island. The marina is a popular launch point for cruising, fishing, and paddling, and its sheltered position makes it a dependable anchorage in an otherwise exposed stretch of coast.

The Town of Sequim

The marina lies just outside Sequim, a town in Clallam County known for its unusually dry climate in the rain shadow of the Olympic Mountains and for its surrounding lavender farms. The harbor is a community gathering point and a convenient base for exploring the peninsula's beaches, trails, and parks.
