Tips from locals
Easily accessible lighthouse; paid access to lightroom with spectacular coastal views.
North Head Lighthouse is an active aid to navigation overlooking the Pacific Ocean from North Head, a rocky promontory located approximately two miles north of Cape Disappointment and the mouth of the Columbia River,[2] near Ilwaco
Great views, great sight itself, access via either of two easy trails. One's wide and direct, the other passes the Coast Guard quarters and store using the old lighthouse-keeper's walkway. Uphill from the parking lot is an amazing view north that takes in the whole peninsula.
