Mosquitoes can be a little thick in the early summer.

Well this place is a bit further, but easily accessible from Vancouver on a long weekend.
I really enjoyed this place because it was literally a 2 min walk from our campsite to the beach where we enjoyed the sunset and a beer
It's just north of Newport, OR where Rogue Beer has a huge brewery so it makes a nice stop for lunch/dinner as well to sample some brews.
