Rolfe Cove Campground — Matia Island Marine State Park

I love camping on Matia Island! Of the three outer San Juan islands, Matia is generally the least crowded.

The island itself is a wildlife refuge and not owned by the state parks so it is almost entirely untouched. There's a single mile-long hiking trail through an old growth forest that, unlike other islands, wasn't destroyed by the settler loggers.

There are two composting toilets for the four campsites, two of which are very large. Rolf Cove has two mooring buoys as well as a dock that's incredibly fun to jump off of and a comfortably slopped rock beach.
