Ocean Shores was the newest city in Washington for nearly 40 years,
but for centuries before it had been a place of permanent
occupation and food gathering for Native American tribes and a
place for sea otter hunters, pioneers, and settlers to reach the
interior of the Olympic Peninsula. Before Ocean Shores, there was
the dream of a town called Cedarville followed by the reality of
Lone Tree with its post office and 200 residents. Point Brown
Peninsula was a village of survival for Polynesian Kanakas, Finns
living on the edge of society, migrant workers called Bluebills,
and a Hooverville for depression-era families. After World War II,
when developers first conceived of creating a "Venice of the West,"
many said their dream would never last. However, in 1970, Ocean
Shores became a city and today has entered its 50th year of
development.
