Battery Harvey Allen — photo spot in Cape Disappointment State Park, 244 Robert Gray Dr, Ilwaco, WA 98624, USA
Battery Harvey Allen
Concrete WWII battery perched on dramatic cliffs at the Columbia River mouth—offers strong foreground geometry, rusted textures, panoramic ocean vistas and lighthouse views. Best at golden hour or stormy winter afternoons for dramatic skies; low tide reveals rocky foregrounds. Park at Cape Disappointment State Park (paid), short uneven walk; expect wind, spray and seasonal fog. Weekdays and early morning reduce crowds.
