Guide
Good to know
Reported good with little kids
Visitors often mention shallow or calm water. This is what reviewers report, not a safety assessment.Mentioned by 8 visitors · 2017–2026
Expect a peaceful, uncrowded beach
This spot attracts far fewer visitors than nearby Oregon Coast beaches, making it ideal for quiet walks and relaxation.
Time your visit to low tide
The tunnel to Tunnel Beach and tide pools are only accessible when water recedes, revealing rock formations and anemones.
Bring a flashlight for the tunnel
The 50-yard rock tunnel has minimal natural light and a rocky, log-covered floor that requires careful footing.
Arrive early to secure parking
The lot has roughly 50 spaces and fills up by late morning on pleasant weekends and summer days.
Wear sturdy shoes for exploring
The terrain combines soft sand with extensive rocks, barnacles, and sharp stones throughout the beach and tunnel.
