So where did you camp along the coast? I just moved to Vancouver WA and I want to find some good coastal camping spots. From what I've read there are no "on beach" camping areas in WA. My coworker did the clam thing last weekend and said they were delicious.
Ocean City State Park. There are plenty of private camp sites too but I'm not aware of any primitive camping there.
Over in Long Beach, I've only camped over at Cape Disappointment but have seen a few other campgrounds near that area as well.
