Go clamming by kayak in a number or spots, or head on out to Trestle Bay.
You’ll travel around the sandy beaches of the Columbia River as you watch ocean freighters head on out to sea. This is a great spot to study the inter-tidal mudflats and marshes.

You must have at least two people in your party to book a tour.
Also give them at least a 48-hour notice before you’d like to head out on the water. This gives them enough time to find a great guide and get all of your equipment cleaned and ready.
Add on a Secret Vista Tour where you will see all the best spots known only to locals. Or take the County Waterfalls Tour, where you’ll see some of the most beautiful waterfalls in the county!
