Loomis Lake
About
Loomis Lake is a public ocean beach in Washington's Pacific Cascade Region, about 4.4 miles from the town of Ocean Park. It's a straightforward stop with restrooms and accessible access, and there is no fee to visit. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show July and August highs in the mid-60s with fewer wet days than the rest of the year. Winter months average highs in the upper 40s and see rain on most days. Close by, the Don Bonker Cedar Grove Trail and Parker Slough Trail offer short drives to hiking. Paddlers can head to Ellsworth Creek or the South Nemah River, both just under 9 miles away.
