In the Long Beach peninsula, visiting the neighborhood candy store has been a popular family activity for over a century. And saltwater taffy is the ideal pleasure to partake in on a beach vacation. Since the 1880s, when this sweet became popular, a wide variety has been made accessible at the neighborhood candy stores in downtown Long Beach. Taffy is just one of several sweets available to guests, though. Homemade fudge, truffles, and caramel hard and soft candies are favorites among visitors who visit the Washington Coast. Moreover, Scoopers and the Pit Stop provide more than 60 different varieties of ice cream for people who want to cool off with a tasty scoop. So whether you're in Long Beach for ice cream, candy, or fun family activities, or just a good time, you are in the right place. So come down and see what all the fuss is about, and remember to check out our downtown Long Beach Washington Vacation Rentals.
