CenturyLink Prices starts at $45/mo in Ocean Park, WA

The Pacific Northwest conjures up a lot of iconic images: Seattle comes to mind (which is now synonymous with Amazon), the evergreen trees that gave Seattle its nickname as the Emerald City, and just about everyone is familiar with how much it rains there. However, what often gets left out of that conversation—perhaps because of the state's stigma for constant precipitation—is the Washington coast line. And yes, the Puget Sound often gets a decent amount of attention, which is well deserved, but the actual far west Washington coast somehow manages to miss the mark with those who aren't from the area. To the initiated though, there are few places on Earth that can touch the natural beauty of the Washington coast proper.

Ocean Park is one city that embodies all of the truly unique features of oceanside Washington in one location. Not only does this town have craggy coastal cliffs, covered with a dense tree line that gives way to sandy beaches, but it is also located on a thin peninsula that juts out from the mainland. And despite the immense beauty that radiates from this town in all directions, there is a humble, small-town vibe that will never leave—a sort of unique Washingtonian coastal culture. You get a hint of this when you visit Jack's Country Store, the oldest continuing retail establishment operating in the entire state. In a way, it's become a novelty, with over 200,000 knickknacks of random origin stocked, but it's still a place frequented by locals who know Jack's rarely lacks the last hard-to-find item on their shopping list (or at least a close substitute).
