Local Tips
Skamokawa offers kayaking on the Columbia River sloughs — the Wahkiakum County Historical Museum tells the story of the area's fishing and pioneer heritage.
The Fair
Skamokawa is home to the Wahkiakum County Fair, which is a three-day fair in one of Washington's smallest and most rural counties, perched along the lower Columbia River near its mouth. Wahkiakum County's deep Scandinavian heritage and its position along the river give this small fair a unique character.
