Perfect Beach House Getaway in Pacific Beach, WA

When most people in the Seattle area think of the "going to the beach" it's usually Ocean Shores, WA or Westport, WA that comes to mind as it's only a 2 hour drive to either one. What they end up running into is a crowded beach with only sand dunes as your landscape and the local area stores that carry the same items with the same tired restaurants. Crazy drivers on the beach that seem to care less about the beachcombers than doing donuts in the sand and moped drivers that consider the beach their race track.

Where can a family go and truly enjoy the setting, the beachcombing (not to mention 100% less litter), the surf, sun, and sand? How about 18 miles North to Pacific Beach?

Pacific Beach is part of the North Beach and is Washington's preciously best kept secret. It is the new home of Seabrook (www.seabrookwa.com), a popular resort town in the making that has come far strides in the last 24 months. They will be opening the Seabrook café in late summer 2007 and will have other amenities for locals to enjoy as well as cottage owners.

Two minutes from Seabrook is main street Pacific Beach which is the home of the Wacky Warehouse, other boutiques including the newly opening 59 Main (owner is Miss Robyn from the Seabrook family and will feature a "starbucks" quality espresso café) and a couple of restaurants like Paddie's Perch and Pacific Tango which feature great seafood and true Pacific Beach atmosphere. Moclips is located less than a mile away and hosts a wonderful resort called Ocean Crest where the dining is elegant and a full pool and work out facility means fun for the kids without sand in their shorts.
