Beaches in Washington state are privately owned. Very inconvenient for kayakers. Oregon state legislature voted years ago that the beaches are open to the public.

Interestingly, since the beaches in Oregon are public, the state can contemplate collecting (and now does) a fee for access to coastal parks.
