Guide
Good to know
Bring a dog
The beach is explicitly dog-friendly and reviewers consistently mention it as an excellent spot for canine companions.
Expect fewer crowds here
This access point draws significantly fewer visitors than the main Haystack Rock area nearby.
Plan for a coastal walk
The beach connects smoothly to Haystack Rock and tide pools, making it ideal for extended exploration.
Arrive early on summer weekends
The parking lot holds only a few cars and fills quickly when Cannon Beach town is crowded.
Check for storm erosion damage
After storms, steep sand drops to the water can appear, making access difficult for some visitors.
