Long Beach Peninsula Media Trip
March 29-31, 2019

In this fully hosted press trip, we’ll share highlights of the Long Beach Peninsula – an iconic Northwest destination notable for its expansive 28-mile beach, medley of small towns, easily accessible wild places, maritime history and historic landmarks, and its rich tradition of eating well. You’ll be visiting during the in-between time, when seafood is at its best and the landscape is newly awash in nature’s first green, the flurry of shorebirds and blows of migrating whales. In the pause preceding summer’s rush, we’ll help you uncover a range of stories by offering rejuvenating and invigorating experiences, mouth-watering coastal cuisine and examples of the creative and resilient spirit that adds vibrancy to this sought-out edge of the world.

To apply, register for the Travel & Words Conference here, then email the conference chair, Allen Cox, at editor@nwtravelmag.com to express interest in the trip.

Attendees will enjoy accommodations, meals and activities hosted by Visit Long Beach Peninsula and our partners. The Long Beach Peninsula is located in the southwestern-most corner of Washington state; a two-hour drive from Vancouver.
