Welcome To The Washington Coast

Slow down, unplug and enjoy all the Washington Coast has to offer. The Long Beach Peninsula and Pacific County have an abundance of ultra-fresh seafood, an endless beach, northwest rain forests and unique places to stay. Close to both Portland, Oregon and Seattle, it’s an easy escape and a perfect place to create traditions that last a lifetime.

Today, the City of Ilwaco is undergoing a revitalization and boasts a vibrant art and fishing community at the Port of Ilwaco Marina. With an Art Walk on Fridays in June, July, & August from 4-7pm, Saturday Market from 10-4 on Saturdays between May and September, chartered fishing trips, and the hiking/biking Discovery Trail which leads out to the North Head Lighthouse, Ilwaco offers something for everyone.

City of Long Beach – Our vision is to become a vibrant resort community that shares its unique coastal environment with residents, businesses, and visitors. We will manage our growth to provide a sound and diverse economic base where families can afford to live. We will create and maintain a pedestrian and bike friendly community that has excellent infrastructure to meet the needs of our businesses, residents, and visitors. We will create a sense of place by establishing a healthy Town Center. We will establish an atmosphere of cooperation with our neighbors all along the Peninsula. Together, we will strive for a community where we pay tribute to our rich cultural and natural heritage; a community that has quality health care and other essential services, and above all is a safe place where residents can live, work, and play.
