Whether you're out for a single day of salt air and sand castles, or a week long backpack with surf lulling you to sleep at night, you'll discover your best options with Washington's Pacific Coast.Author Greg Johnston has had a long and intimate relationship with this coast, and his voice is distinctive, passionate, often opinionated, and clearly knowledgeable. His authoritative guide provides detailed, fun, and family-friendly activities, as well as expansive information, history, and geology. (If Captain Cook passed by where you are, this guide will tell youâand make the trip feel all the more satisfying.)
