All you have to do is step outside. BEACHES The peninsula has 28 miles of uninterrupted sand and rolling dunes. Even during the peak season, you will find uncrowded stretches to enjoy. There are seven beach access points (see map on next page). You can also access the beach on foot at Loomis Lake State Park, Pacific Pines State Park, and Leadbetter Point State Park. Walk quiet stretches of beach in Tokeland and North Cove, two small villages in north Pacific County. Be sure to read up on beach safety and beach driving on pages 16-17. This coast is wild and beautiful. Treat it with respect. WHALE WATCHING Breaching gray whales, humpbacks, and orcas can be spotted anytime of year along the peninsula. The best times to spot a whale are during the biannual migration of nearly 20,000 Pacific Gray Whales in January and mid-March. Check our award winning weekly newspaper, the Chinook Observer, for sightings. BIRDING Sitting along a major flyway, the Long Beach Peninsula is known for birding. More than 300 species of birds make their home here on the Peninsula. Whether you are searching for Great Blue Herons, Trumpeter Swans, the Western Screech-Owl, or perhaps the Red-Breasted Sapsucker – the possibilities are endless. 5 VisitLongBeachPeninsula.com Follow 1 0 1 north to: I-5 12 6 105 and Seattle, Chehalis, Centralia, F PL F South Bend, Raymond, Tokeland STACKPOLE RD T LN J PL CLARK ST G ST WILLAPA WEST LN 103 NATIONAL 340 PL OYSTERVILLE ROAD WILDLIFE BAY CENTER 103 338 PL REFUGE V PL T PL I ST I J PL J OYSTERVILLE G ST G H ST Bearberry Trail 1.3 miles Y LN Y Bay Loop Trail I ST I Weather Beach 1.2 miles G PL Trail 0.9 miles DOUGLAS DR Dune Forest SANDRIDGE RD Willapa Bay PL K LEADBETTER Loop Trail 324th PL 2.8 miles POINT STATE PARK 101 ST I Surfside 320th PL Golf Course J PL J G ST G 103 SURFSIDE TERV BEACH OYS ILLE RD OYSTERVILLE ACCESS L LN O ST R ST T LN U LN JOE JOHNS RD SURFSIDE Symbol Legend Z ST U ST X LN SURFSIDE - Public Boat Launch 103 GOLF COURSE VERNON AVE - Public Kayak Launch 285TH LN R ST Q ST 282ND ST - Discovery Pass Required 281ST ST 281ST ST J LN K LN 280TH PL - Information JOE JOHNS RD SANDRIDGE RD Y PL NEMAH PL L K PL M PL U ST NAHCOTTA O ST 275TH PL LN Q PORT OF LN R NAHCOTTA PENINSULA 274TH PL Port of Peninsula OCEAN PARK V ST W ST X LN 273RD ST BEACH 272ND ST BAY AVE ACCESS VERNON AVE RIDGE AVE RIDGE 270TH PL 269TH PL K LN LONG BEACH PENINSULA BEACH LONG 267TH PL Willapa Bay OCEAN PARK 266TH PL Interpretive 265TH PL DELLST 265TH PL Center 264TH PL KLIPSAN BROADWAY (open seasonally) 263RD PL Z ST 262ND PL BEACH 227TH PL Beach to Bay BEACH BAY AVE Trail ACCESS LONG ISLAND Visitor Information 103 101 U ST Center 257TH LN PACIFIC WAY PACIFIC LOOMIS LAKE LOOMIS LAKE Peninsula Golf Course STATE PARK Teal Slough Trail PIONEER RD W 19TH ST 103 Cranberry WILLAPA Museum NATIONAL Visitor WILDLIFE Center REFUGE 4 16TH ST POST OFFICE Art Walk Trail 14TH ST 103 l i a LONG r T y r e v o c BEACH s i 6TH ST D 5TH ST BEACH SANDRIDGE ROAD RD CRANBERRY Post Oce ACCESS NASELLE WASHINGTON AVE Cranberry Arch PENINSULA 2ND ST Rodeo Museum 68 PL Grounds GOLF COURSE BOLSTAD W WILLAPA Veteran’s Columbia k l 3RD ST PIONEER RD Pacic CEDAR ST NE a Field Stage NATIONAL w d Heritage r a Worlds V PL 1ST AVE AVE 1ST WILDLIFE Museum o N HEAD RD 101 401 B Largest Discovery Trail LONG BEACH REFUGE COOKS HILL RD Frying Pan 7TH ST BRUMBACH AVE NE AVE BRUMBACH BOLSTAD AVE 101 AVE ADVENT BEACH NE AVE ELIZABETH SPRUCE ST 9TH ST SID SNYDER RD OCEAN BEACH BLVD SID SNYDER DR 60TH S ACCESS LAKE ST SE 11TH ST DISCOVERY 11TH ST TRAIL 12TH ST Visitor SW AVE 2ND MAIN ST SE OUTER HARBOR WAY SE PEARL AVE SE AVE PEARL World Kite 13TH ST SEAVIEW Information Museum World Kite Center Ilwaco 14TH ST City Park 16TH ST 55 ST Museum HOWERTON WAY 101 AVE 1ST 17TH ST WATERFRONT WAY CALIFORNIA AVE BEACH 38TH ST BOULEVARD AVE 18TH ST OREGON AVE ACCESS BLACK LAKE 51ST ST K PL R D ILWACO AY R T G R OB ER PORT BEARDS Columbia Pacic ILWACO SANDRIDGE RD Discovery Trail OF ILWACO HOLLOW Heritage Museum l i a r Visitor T y SEAVIEW North Head r Information e v 103 100 PORT OF o 41 PL Center Lighthouse CHINOOK c s PORT OF CHINOOK i ILWACO D Arch K PL CAPE 101 CHINOOK 38TH PL DISAPPOINTMENT COUNTY PARK STATE PARK Follow 1 0 1 south to: Lewis & Clark FORT COLUMBIA Bridge to Astoria, Interpretive Center STATE PARK Cape Disappointment Portland 30TH St Lighthouse 101 KNAPPTON 401 2 miles COVE 6 VisitLongBeachPeninsula.com FISHING, CRABBING, & CLAMMING Salmon, sturgeon, Dungeness crab, and razor clams are some of the local bounty to be found in the waters of Pacific County.

    IMPACTS ON WATERBIRDS FROM THE 1984 COLUMBIA RIVER AND WHIDBEY ISLAND, WASHINGTON, OIL SPILLS STEVEN M. SPEICH, 4817 Sucia Drive, Ferndale, Washington98248 STEVEN P. THOMPSON, Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge, 100 Brown Farm Road, Olympia, Washington98506 (presentaddress: Stillwater Wildlife Management Area, P.O. Box 1236, Fallon, Nevada 89406) Two major oil pollutionevents in Washingtonin 1984 resultedin signifi- cant oiling of waterbirds.The first occurred 19 March 1984 when a tanker ran agroundnear St. Helens, Oregon, releasingoil into the ColumbiaRiver. The second occurred 21 December 1984 when a vessel released oil into southernAdmiralty Inlet off the south end of Whidbey Island in Puget Sound, Washington.During both spillsmany waterbirdswere found dead, and many others were found incapacitated.This paper documentsthe speciesof waterbirdsoiled in eachevent. Althoughsome impacts of oil spills on waterbirds on the Pacific Coast of North America have been documented (Aldrich 1938, Moffitt and Orr 1938, Richardson1956, Small et al. 1972, Vermeer and Vermeer 1975, PRBO 1985), many othersare undocumented and doubtlesswill remainso (Vermeerand Vermeer 1975, Speichunpubl. data). THE OIL SPILLS The Columbia River Spill The tanker b,'l'obiloilran aground in the Columbia River near St. Helens, Oregon, on WarriorRock (rivermile 88.2) on 19 March 1984 (Figure1). Its tanksruptured, releasing an estimated170,000 to 233,000 gallonsof heavy residual oil, number six fuel oil, and an industrialfuel oil into the river (Ken- nedy and Baca 1984). A portion of the releasedoil sank but the rest floated downstream,reaching the mouth of the ColumbiaRiver 21 March 1984. It was then carried north by ocean currents, reaching Ocean Shores, Washington, by 25 March 1984.
