Coastal plains, river valleys, and low hills characterize this county along the Pacific Ocean with Grays Harbor providing a large estuarine system. Abundant rainfall and marine influence create productive agricultural conditions in valley locations.

Dairy operations and beef cattle ranching utilize the wet climate for year-round pasture production in coastal valleys. Cranberry bogs, vegetable production, and specialty crops take advantage of the maritime climate and organic-rich soils.
