How Far Is Seattle From The Ocean?

Hello, fellow Seattleites and interested travelers! You might wonder how far our beautiful Emerald City is from the Pacific Ocean. The straight-line distance is about 95 miles (153 kilometers), but the closest driving distance to an ocean beach, like Ocean Shores, is about 134 miles (216 kilometers). This makes for a scenic 2.5-hour drive. Although Seattle isn't directly on the ocean, the stunning Puget Sound offers plenty of marine adventures and coastal vibes. So, pack your bags and enjoy the natural beauty that surrounds us!
