I went with my wife and two kids, ( 9/ 11 y/o) up to Camano Is. We stayed at the Cama Beach Resort. Man, what a place.
check out http://www.parks.wa.gov/CamaBeach/accommodations/

Since this is a fishing report I will say that amongst other great weekend activities, we spent a lot of time fishing from the beach. We were casting the Blue Fox Vibrax #4 spinners. Mostly silver blades and shafts, or Gold. It wasn't necessarily the fastest fishing. but we did catch and release a couple of juvenile Silvers. We saw few along the way which were jumping within casting distance. Water was anywhere from calm as glass, to 40 mph winds and rain via a storm that came through. No fishing pressure here, this place is all about chillin. Another cool thing.... I probably threw 100 casts, next thing you know, the kid in the photo asks if he can cast my rod. OK, I'm like,,, "Yeah, whatever kid" He throws one cast about 15' out,,, fish on, small silver.

On another note.. If you come here. The newly remodeled cabins are $29.00 Sleeps two adults, and 4 kids. No kidding.
Of course if you want a full house, I think that goes for 50-60 bucks.
The best thing to mention is that there is The Center for Wooden Boats on site. This place will allow you to take out a Classic style wooden boat for CHEAP!! Example being a 16' boat with 25 hp motor rents for $4.00 dollars for 2.5 hours.
I thought it was maybe a antique sign reproduction... but no, it's true.
I won't ramble on any more. Go check it out.

Great info quadradomus, looks like a sweet place to spend a weekend and boat launches are close by to boot! BTW, the pic of the sliver has a great example of what sealice look like. I was getting them mixed up with their freshwater counterparts and it was confusing the heck out of me.

I am pretty sure you could fish from the boats,just because they offer rudimentary fishing gear at the office. The boathouse hours opened at 10:00 am and not sure of closing. They will not rent out the boats if it is too choppy on the water.
