Grays Harbor

From stories of the first ships that sailed here to trivia about the trades that took place, history is a fine teller of tales. Not only does it intrigue us with the human’s quest of progress but plots out the journey of mankind. Keeping track of this history through artifacts is the role of museums. With the Grays Harbor area being discovered in the early 1800s, the entire stretch holds many stories. From the families that have lived here, to the trade that brought economic progress, the grand ships that sailed and how the region prepared during World War II, there are many tales. Bringing them all together under various museums has been taken up over time, and compiling this comprehensive list of the historical holders, has been the objective of this website. So here’s to inviting you to a place where time transforms into space and history tells the stories of the past. Do browse through and discover the region through the lens of its past.

Due to the recent events of the Coronavirus pandemic, the Gray's Harbor Museum is currently closed until further notice. However, we are doing online guided tours so that people can still experience the wonder that is the Gray's Harbor Museum.

These online tours are may possible by vendor partners such as LoadView who help us maintain our web servers to ensure they don't crash under the load of new visitors. We also allow developers to use our API in order to show our museum content around the world.
