The Port is working to expand the gravel beach located at the NE end of the Cascade Locks Marine Park. The project is designed to expand public day use access, enlarge the sailboat launching area, improve riparian habitat, and provide additional tribal fishing opportunities. Despite its humble size, the current beach hosts dozens of world-class sailing regattas and clinics each summer, organized by the Columbia Gorge Racing Association (CGRA). Commercial workshops and events should contact the Port prior to use.
