Cape Disappointment
Cape Disappointment is located on the southernmost end of the Long Beach Peninsula with its entrance in Ilwaco. Although it was first mapped by Spaniard Bruno De Hezeta in 1775, the Cape was named by English Captain John Meares who approached it in 1787, looking for the river’s entrance. His disappointment in not finding the entrance is given credit for the name.
