Presentazione generale
Long Beach Peninsula
Dunes, lighthouses and oyster villages at the mouth of Columbia.
The discovery of Long Beach Peninsula is based around Cape Dispair, North Head Lighthouse and Leadbetter Point. The stay thus alternates between the coastline, wetlands and natural areas, giving a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
Vedi tutto
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Luoghi imperdibili
Una selezione per iniziare a sognare e organizzare il soggiorno — non un elenco esaustivo di tutto ciò che c’è da vedere.
Nature and landscape
Cape Disappointment
Cape Disaddition brings together wooded cliffs, Pacific-beaten beaches and views of the mouth of Columbia, where the river's waters meet the swell. Lighthouses, Fort Canby batteries and Lewis and Clark's centre give the site a very clear sea thickness, especially in changing times.
Place indismissible
North Head Lighthouse
North Head Lighthouse dominates the ocean from a wind-exposed prairie, with a wide view of the Pacific reels and Cape Disappoint capes. Its relative isolation, the old guard houses and the nearby trails make it a visit more atmospheric than monumental, very marked by the noise of the sea.
Nature and landscape
Leadbetter Point
Leadbetter Point occupies the northern end of the Long Beach Peninsula, between ocean beach, dunes, marshes and Willapa Bay. The trails cross a territory that is appreciated by migratory birds; binoculars and adapted shoes really change the experience, especially in wetlands close to Hines Marsh.
Place indismissible
Oysterville
Oysterville retains an atmosphere of maritime village facing the Bay of Willapa, with ancient houses, small church, cemetery and traces of the time of oyster parks. The visit is made in a coastal silence, between high grasses, low fences and views of the calm waters where ostreiculture remains visible.
