Moran State Park is located on Orcas Island (of course :-):
From I-5:
Take Hwy. 20 exit westbound to Anacortes. Follow signs to San Juan/
Sidney, B.C. ferries. Take the Washington State Ferry from Anacortes
to Orcas. Of all the wonderful things that the government does for
us, pre-planning is not one of them, so you will have to plan, plan
for ferry line activities that will inevitably happen in a very
big parking lot, with a lot of other cars and a lot of other lines.
I suggest a Frisbee because it does less damage to cars than say
a football or baseball, believe me I speak from experience. A pack
of cards can be helpful as well, however a clingy, drooling dog
can hinder you card playing in an already over-packed car.
For ferry times I suggest you follow this handy happy ferry hyperlink.
The ferry ride over here is a beautiful experience which makes up
for any ferry wait, the food is decently greased and reasonably
priced. For the price of the beautiful scenery on a big boat, it's
a bargain, you can expect to pay around 30 bucks for a car and 2
people.
A really handy link to look up right before you leave for the Anacortes
ferry is right
HERE. It takes you to a Washington Stare Ferry page that includes
updated ferry information about ferry lines.
Another fun link to a web cam so you can actually SEE the ferry
lines in Anacortes is HERE
