10th Street Access
About
10th Street Access is a public ocean beach about half a mile from Long Beach, Washington. It's a straightforward stop on the coast with restrooms on site and no fee to visit. Swimming is not allowed here, so plan on walking the sand or simply taking in the shoreline rather than getting in the water. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Long Beach show a mild, damp climate year-round with no snow days. Summer is the driest and warmest stretch: July and August bring highs of about 65 to 67°F and lows near 52°F, with only 11 to 12 wet days a month. September stays pleasant, with highs around 66°F. Winter is cool and very wet, with highs near 48 to 50°F, lows in the mid-30s, and roughly 19 to 23 wet days a month from November through March. Spring warms slowly, reaching highs near 59°F by May. For more time outdoors, Parker Slough Trail is about 3.5 miles away, and paddlers can head to Bear River, roughly 6.4 miles off. Don Bonker Cedar Grove Trail lies about 7.8 miles away, and across the state line in Oregon, Chinook RV Park offers camping about 7.5 miles from the beach.
