We got a nice mention in Cascadia Kids:
Long Beach, Wash.
Why go? On Southwest Washington’s tip, Long Beach
hosts funky curios like Jake the Alligator Man, chainsaw-carved logs and
beachfront houses with eccentric decor. Personally, I love the house
with hundreds of buoys displayed out front.But beyond the video games, go-karts and beach trappings (and kids
love all of it), you’ll also find an amazing foodie community’s
restaurants in Long Beach and neighboring towns of Ilwaco, Seaview and
Nahcotta. And gentle hikes through Cape Disappointment State Park
provide see-forever views of the Pacific Ocean before you come upon a
stately lighthouse.Sites to explore: Long Beach Peninsula Visitors Bureau and Bailey’s
Bakery and Cafe, which serves up some of the best baked goods I’ve
ever enjoyed.
