Long Beach Peninsula and Willapa Bay dominate this coastal county with low hills, river valleys, and extensive wetlands along the Pacific Ocean. Marine influence and abundant rainfall create unique growing conditions for specialized crops.

Cranberry production utilizes naturally occurring bogs and constructed wetlands throughout the coastal plain areas. Dairy operations and beef cattle ranching take advantage of year-round pasture growth supported by maritime climate conditions.
