  Located 20 miles north of the Oregon border in southwest Washington State, Ilwaco bills itself as the salmon fishing capital of the Pacific Northwest. But for Northwest vacationers seeking to escape the more popular Oregon Coast, Ilwaco provides many attractions. Visitors to this coastal destination can shop, beachcomb, ride mopeds and fly kites along the Pacific Ocean; explore cranberry bogs and oyster farms and tour nearby Lewis & Clark State Historical Park. Ilwaco offers numerous hotels catering to both fisherman and tourists.
