Guide
Good to know
Best for walking and dogs
The soft, wide sandy beach is ideal for leisurely walks and dog play, with leash laws in effect.
Expect a long walk to water
At low tide especially, the sandy dunes extend far, and it can take 15 minutes or more.
Arrive early on busy days
Parking fills quickly on weekends and holidays, though the large lot usually has space off-season.
Bring a parking pass or app
Day parking requires either a QR code pass obtained via the parking area website or an Oregon State Parks pass.
