Peace Arch Park is a park straddling the International Boundary between the United States and Canada at its extreme western end (disregarding Point Roberts). It consists of Peace Arch State Park on the American side of the border and Peace Arch Provincial Park on the Canadian side of the border.

The park is notable for the Peace Arch. The northern portion is about 9 hectares and is managed by the British Columbia Ministry of Environment. The southern portion is about 20 acres (81,000 m²) and is managed by the Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission.
