SEAVIEW, Wash. — Angora Hiking Club invites walkers and hikers to join Washington State Park interpretive specialist Aaron Webster for a walk to view the waves, currents and tides and how they interact to define Washington’s beautiful and sometimes dangerous Long Beach Peninsula coast.

Walkers will meet at 9 a.m. Saturday, July 18 at the Sixth Street parking lot in Astoria. From there, attendees will carpool to 38th Place in Seaview, Washington, arriving at about 9:30 a.m. at the beach to meet Webster. There is roadside parking along 38th Place approaching the Discovery Trail entrance to the beach, with no fees or time limits posted.

This guided, level walk is about 3 miles south to Beard’s Hollow. Possible birds to see are terns, gulls, eagles, cormorants, pelicans, peregrines, osprey and dunlins.

A return walk back to 38th Place should result in approximately a three-hour sojourn total.

Wear sturdy shoes, bring bug repellant, water and sunblock lotion. There are restrooms at Beard’s Hollow.
